Liam Gannon

Level 20 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Christopher Nguyen defended the big blind after Leonard Maue raised to 200,000 from the hijack.

Nguyen led out on the flop of 7♥6♥4♥ for 125,000 and Maue called.

On the turn A♥, Nguyen sized up to 250,000 and Maue called.

"One million," said Nguyen as the river peeled off an 8♥ and Maue quickly called.

At showdown Nguyen turned over 5♥3♥ for an eight-high straight flush and Maue mucked his hand.
