Nguyen Folds to Four-Bet

Level 27 : 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

From the cutoff Ben Yu raised to 420,000 and Scotty Nguyen on the button three-bet for the size of the pot, making it 1,420,000 to go. Yu gave it plenty of consideration and four-bet the pot to 4,440,000, which resulted in a quick fold from Nguyen.

One hand later, Nguyen raised to 420,000 and James Calderaro called in the small blind, as did Jason Koon in the big blind. On the {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop, Calderaro bet 600,000 and both opponents folded. The defending champion flashed the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{X-} for top two pair.
