Don Nguyen Down a Bullet Early

Level 3 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

A series of preflop raises eventually found Don Nguyen and Sean Winter all-in, with each man holding an ace. After Nguyen raised the action to 64,000, Winter plunked in a stack equal to 400,000, forcing Nguyen all-in if he wished to continue. He decided to make the call, risking his first bullet with {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}.

Unfortunately for Nguyen, his hand was dominated by Winter's {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}, and a final board of {2-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} sent the last of his opening stack across the table.
