Level 37
: 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante
Hand #14: It folded to Tommy Nguyen in the small blind who surveyed short stack Michael Benko's stack before moving all in. Benko snap-called for his last 3,500,000.

Michael Benko:
The flop came giving Nguyen top pair. As the turn came Benko turned to fist-bump Nguyen, saying "Nice hand." The river, however, was the giving Benko a four-card flush.
"Wow," said Benko, "I didn't even see that."
