Handling The Swings

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

It has been an up and down level for Soi Nguyen.

Soon after he admittedly bluffed off a good chunk of his stack to a player sitting a couple seats to his left, Nguyen found himself putting Jeff Gross to a rather large test with an 8,850-chip bet into a 12k-plus pot on the river with the board reading {3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Spades}.

Gross took his time about it, but eventually made the call, only to muck when Nguyen showed {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, having missed his flush draw but made one pair.
