Nguyen's Kicker Brings Winning Set

Level 19: 4,000 / 8,000 ante: 8,000

Small blind Ilia Timofeev and big blind Tuan Hung Nguyen were competing for the 68,000 chips in the middle of the pot while studying a board that showed 7♣ 7♠ 2♣.

Nguyen had put all his 234,000 chips at risk against Timofeev. Both had flopped a set, but Nguyen's king made the better kicker and the better hand. The board ran 6♦ A♣ and shipped the chips Nguyen's way.
