Sung Rivers Huynh

Phong Huynh raised to 100,000 and Steve Sung reraised to 300,000 behind him. Huynh made the call and we saw a {J-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {2-Clubs} flop, Huynh checked and Sung moved all in.

After some thought Huynh made the call with {A-Clubs} {J-Spades} ahead of Sung's {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}. The turn {4-Hearts} couldn't save Sung but the river was the {10-Clubs} prompting an explosion of noise from the crowd as the latter made the nut straight.

Soon after, Sung and Huynh sparred in another pot, this time blind on blind. Hunyh eventually moving all in on the river of a {K-Spades} {K-Hearts} {2-Spades} {3-Hearts} {5-Spades} for 325,000 forcing Sung to give it up.

As of now, Sung is on 2.2 million and Huynh has 900,000.
