The Master Eliminated

[user67765]

After being down to as low as 225 in chips at one point, and then clawing his way back up the leaderboard, Men 'The Master' Nguyen has finally been dealt his last Omaha hand for this event.

Nguyen and Allen Kessler took a flop of {6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and Kessler let out with a bet of 500. Nguyen raised to 1,000 and Kessler raised once again to put Nguyen all in. He made the call and the cards were flipped.

Kessler: {3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Nguyen: {3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Clubs}

The turn arrived the {10-Hearts} and river {A-Diamonds} and Kessler made the wheel for the low and a six-high straight for the high hand to scoop the pot and eliminate a courageous Nguyen from the tournament.
