Kings No Good, Baby

Scotty Nguyen
Scotty Nguyen

Scott Nguyen opened the action to 900 from early position. The player in the cutoff made the call and with the blinds out of the way, the dealer readied three cards.

Flop: {a-Spades}{4-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

On the flop, Neguyen checked and then called a bet of 1,000 from his opponent. Both players then checked the {q-Hearts} turn and it was on to the {7-Spades} river. Nguyen again check-called a bet, this time of 1,400.

"Alright baby, let's see if i lose with king-king again," said Nguyen as he tabled {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. His opponent turned over {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}, with the rivered set enough to give him the win.
