World Series of Poker Circuit Harrah's Chester Main Event winner Kenny Nguyen raised to 550 from the hijack, which cleared the field all the way to the big blind. A three-bet to 1,300 was made, Nguyen called, and the flop came down 
.
The big blind simply moved all in and Nguyen snap-called off his stack of 2,900.
Nguyen:

With about 1,400 in the pot and a board reading

peeled off on the river.
Filippi's bet proved enough to take down the pot without a showdown, giving him a stack of 22,000 in the process.
