Nguyen Eliminated in Massive Pot
Picking up the action on the turn in a three-way hand, the board read 
with roughly 133,000 in the middle. Pavlin Karakikov bet out 55,000, the player next to act called and Danny Nguyen raised it up to 210,000. Karakikov then three-bet to 510,000 and the middle player had a decision, after tanking for about a minute he let his hand go, and Nguyen made the call.
On the 
river Karakikov moved all-in for 523,000, Nguyen had slightly less and went into the tank for five minutes before the clock was called. The tournament director came over and gave Nguyen 25-seconds to act. With two seconds remaining he made the call.
Karakikov tabled 
for a rivered straight and Nguyen showed 
for a pair of queens before the dealer scooped his cards into the muck awarding Karakikov a pot over 2,000,000 chips and eliminating Nguyen from the tournament.
