APT Main Event (36,000,000 VND)

The action started with Gia Nguyen opening from early-position. Changxiao Yan called before Jia Xiong three-bet to 8,000. Hai Nguyen in the big-blind got involved in the hand with a call, and the the two players behind him also called.

The flop came down 8♠ 7♦ 3♣ and the first player to act Hai Nguyen moved all-in for 22,500. The original opener Gia Ngyuen next to him called, and everybody else folded and the players tabled their cards.

Hai Nguyen: 5♦ 4♦

Gia Nguyen: 6♦ 6♥

Hai Nguyen managed to be up exactly against the hand he least wanted to see. He was dependent on the mercy of the poker gods, who let him down and busting him from the Main Event after turn brought the 9♣ and river 2♠ .
