Scotty Nguyen Crumbles, Then Doubles

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Scotty Nguyen made a move on a {5-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades} board with {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} but his opponent Liam He had flopped a set with {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}.

Nguyen had He all-in and at risk but no help came from the rest of the board and Nguyen was forced to pay He a double up, leaving himself with crumbs.

Not long after, Nguyen got the rest of his stack in against new table-mate Daniel Barry. Nguyen shoved with {k-Spades}{10-Clubs} and Barry called with {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}.

Nguyen picked up a pair on the {k-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} board and doubled up.
