Nguyen and Geller Bounced

While Anh Van Nguyen recently doubled, he was unable to turn that win into any sort of momentum. In a recent hand, Nguyen raised from middle position and received calls from the players in both blinds. The small blind then led out on the {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop, which the big blind and Nguyen called. When the dealer burned and turned the {Q-Spades}, The small blind bet, the big blind raised, and Nguyen three-bet all in. The big blind folded while the small made the call.

Nguyen: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Small Blind: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}

Nguyen was ahead with his flopped set but needed to dodge a heart or jack on the river. Unfortunately for him, the {7-Hearts} spiked and sent him to the rail.

Meanwhile, the wife of Patrik Antonius, Maya Geller, was also eliminated from the tournament.
