Nguyen Can't Win

From middle position, Ryan Hart raised to 65,000, and Anh Van Nguyen three-bet it up to 130,000 from the button. Hart called, and the flop came out {K-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {4-Spades}. Without wasting much time, Hart moved all in for 371,00, and Nguyen quickly called, turning over {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds}. Hart tabled {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}, and someone at the table said they had folded a seven, just to make the news worse.

Not to worry though, Mr. Hart. Like a thunderbolt, the {7-Clubs} struck the turn, vaulting Ryan into a big lead. The river was not an ace, and the {Q-Spades} marks a double up for Hart. He's back to 1,150,000, while Nugyen has taken another slide down to 660,000.
