Nguyen Sniffs Out a Bluff, Surges Past 600,000
Level 12
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Qui Nguyen check-raised a bet of 5,500 from Masashi Fujiike up to 15,000 on the flop 
. Fujiike called and they saw the 
turn.
Nguyen continued for 25,000 and Fujiike called again. The river was the 
and Nguyen checked. Fujiike fired 100,000 and Nguyen tanked.
After some thought, Nguyen tossed in a call and Fujiike tabled 
for a pair. Nguyen turned over 
for a pair of tens and the winner.
"Oh my gosh," said Fujiike.
"You bluffed the wrong guy," said Nguyen.
"There's a world champ for you," said tablemate James Burns.
