Two in a Row for Nguyen
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Huifang Zhang opened 2,000 in early position and both Thi Nguyen and James Mendoza came along in the blinds.
When the K?9?5? flop hit the felt, the action checked to Zhang who continued for 3,000. Only Nguyen called.
The K? paired the board on the turn and both players checked to the 2? river. Nguyen fired 8,000 across the line and Zhang snap-mucked.
The following hand, Zhang opened for 2,000 under the gun and Umar Khan called in the cutoff before Nguyen put in a three-bet to 6,500 which was enough to earn the pot.
