An Ace in the Window Spells Doom for Thai

Level 15: 3,000 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

Nguyen Quoc Cuong opened to 10,000 and was swiftly met with an all-in shove from Quynh Thai. Without hesitation, Cuong called, flipping over A Ts—only to find himself in a classic race against Thai’s T T.


But the flop was brutal: 2 A 4d—an ace right in the window, turning the tide instantly and putting Thai on the brink of elimination. The Q and 4 sealed her fate with no saving ten in sight. A Cuong calmly stacked his newly won chips, Thai walked away in silence, her run cut short in heartbreaking fashion.
