Nguyen Claims Another Scalp

Level 12 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Johannes Straver moved all in on the button for 80,000 and was put at risk by Turbo Nguyen.

Johannes Straver: KJ All in
Turbo Nguyen: AJ

If Straver were to survive, he would need some help from the deck, as he got his short-stack all-in dominated.

Help was unforthcoming, as the Q8Q58 board gave both players two pair, but Nguyen held onto the lead with his superior kicker.
