The Master Gets There

The Master
The Master

Four players saw a flop of {10-Spades}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts} including Men "The Master" Nguyen. Action checked to Nguyen who bet 350 from middle position. One player called.

The turn was the {8-Diamonds} and both players checked.

The river brought the {6-Spades} and Nguyen led for 1,000. His opponent called but quickly mucked after Nguyen opened {k-Spades}{8-Spades} for a rivered flush.

Nguyen is off to a fast start, already up to 7,800 chips.
