Hassabis Doubles Through Nguyen

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

In a battle of the blinds on a board of {6-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} with around 15,000 in the middle, Demis Hassabis checked to Khiem Nguyen who bet out 11,500.

Hassabis then check-raised to 30,000 before Nguyen shoved all in and Hassabis called for his 58,900 chip stack.

Hassabis: {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Nguyen: {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Hearts}

With Hassabis holding a flush draw to go along with his low straight, the river of the {6-Diamonds} saw him pushed the pot to double through to over 130,000 as Nguyen's missed straight draw saw his stack spiral down to under 50,000.
