Nguyen Comes Racing Back From Dinner

Kennii Nguyen
Kennii Nguyen

We noticed Kennii Nguyen was had been mysteriously absent since the level began, but he just came back and had apparently forgot that the dinner break was only 60-minutes instead of 90, which only occur on Day 1's.

He had some choice words about his stack being blinded and ante'd off for 20 minutes, but the it only seemed to have cost him about 10,000.

In any case, Nguyen is back in the action.

Trevino Sends Goodfellow to the Rail

Shortly after doubling, Alejandro Trevino called Ronald Goodfellow's all-in shove of 30,500. It was a classic race as the former turned over {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} against the latter's {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}.

Unfortunately for Goodfellow, it wasn't a good flop as the {5-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{K-Clubs} gave Trevino a set. The {8-Spades} turn left Goodfellow drawing dead, and after the {6-Clubs} was put out on the river for good measure, he took his leave from the tournament floor.

Every Rose Has a Trevino

William Rose raised to 20,000 on the button only to have Alejandro Trevino move all in for 82,500 from the button. The blinds got out of the way and Rose made the call.

Showdown
Trevino: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Rose: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

Trevino was in great shape to double, which is exactly what he did when the board ran out {8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}.

Nguyen Gives Up Big Slick

Kennii Nguyen opened to 6,000 from under-the-gun and was three-bet to 14,500 from Scott Poling in middle position. Action folded back around to Nguyen and he four-bet to 54,500. Poling didn't take long to move all in (he had Nguyen covered) and Nguyen fell into the tank.

"You haven't played back at me all day," Nguyen said. "Will you show me one?"

Poling initially declined, but Nguyen eventually talked him into showing his hand after Nguyen folded {A-}{K-} faceup.

Poling revealed he had pocket jacks and scooped the pot.

Barnum Busts

Action began on Justin Barnum, who was under-the-gun. After deliberating for some, he called the clock on himself. A floorman came over and announced he would have 70 seconds to declare action or his hand would be dead. Barnum waited all the way until he had just two seconds remaining and pushed all in for his last 7,400. Action folded around to Darryl Ronconi in the small blind, who looked like he wanted to call. Barnum began telling him that he didn't need to call and that he had an actual hand.

After some time, Ronconi called, but Kevin Allen raised to about 20,000 from the big blind and Ronconi folded.

Allen: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Barnum: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, giving Allen a flush on the river and sending Barnum to the rail.
