Small Pot for Nguyen

Level 28 : 80,000/160,000, 0 ante

Shaun Deeb raised to 320,000 in the cutoff and James Calderaro called on the button, as did Ben Yu in the big blind. The flop fell {Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and the action checked to Calderaro, who bet 500,000. That ended up winning the pot without showdown.

Deeb raised to 320,000 first to act the very next hand and Scotty Nguyen called in the big blind to see a flop of {A-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. Nguyen checked and Deeb checked back to head to a turn of {9-Clubs}. Again both checked and did so again on the {8-Clubs} river.

Nguyen was first to show and turned over the {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, which ended up winning the pot.
