Nguyen Hits Set to Score Knockout

Level 13 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

With 60,000 already in the pot in a three-way hand with the under-the-gun player all in, Rich Nguyen shoved his last 35,000 on a {k-}{10-}{9-} rainbow flop from the cutoff. The button folded.

Under the Gun: {k-}{10-}
Rich Nguyen: {9-}{9-}

In a cruel twist of fate, the player all in had flopped top two pair but was way behind Nguyen's set of nines.

The board ran out {5-}{3-} to eliminate him and Nguyen chipped up to around 100,000.

With 20,000 in the middle on the {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop the action went check-check.

The turn brought the {4-Spades} and Everett Carlton faced a bet of 15,000.

He asked for a count and then moved in with the bigger stack and his opponent laid it down.

Is the PokerNews Run-Good Real?

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Eric Van Der Burg was a little chilly sitting at his table and asked to borrow a jacket from PokerNews.

We were happy to oblige and since then, Van Der Burg has run his chip stack up among the leaders.

He was just seen collecting a massive pot and has nearly 400,000 on the bubble, more than three times the chip average.

This begs the question, is the PokerNews run-good real?

McDonald Eliminates Stamm Near the Bubble

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
David Stamm

David Stamm opened from the cutoff for 6,000 and Tom McDonald called from the small blind.

The flop came {2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and McDonald lead for 20,000. Stamm raised to 50,000 and McDonald immediately put Stamm all in. Stamm called.

David Stamm: {a-Spades}{3-Spades}
Tom McDonald: {k-Hearts}{10-Spades}

McDonald's top pair went up against Stamm's nut flush draw.

The {3-Hearts} on the turn gave Stamm more outs to a win but the {6-Diamonds} was not one of them as he exited about five places from the bubble.
