Nguyen Forced to Fold
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player opened to 1,800 from under the gun and was called by a player in early position as well as the small blind. Phong Than Nguyen then three-bet to 7,500 out of the big blind, eliciting folds from both the under the gun and early position players. The small blind, however, responded by moving all in for around 35,000, enough to cover his opponent. That sent Nguyen deep into the tank as he counted out his remaining stack before eventually finding a fold to stay alive in the tournament with a relatively short stack.
