On the very next hand of Nguyen asking what he should blind, Nguyen announced he was all in blind from the small blind. William Douglas-Smith announced he'd call Nguyen's bet. Action folded around the table and the hands were tabled.

Nguyen: {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs}
Douglas-Smith: {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds}

Some of the table laughed that Nguyen just happened to have pocket kings while betting blind, the smart money says he took a peek.

Board: {9-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {J-Spades}

Douglas-Smith's trip jacks cracked Nguyen's kings and Nguyen's performance ended.
