Event #14 | $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 17 (Blinds 3,000/6,000/6,000)
Total Event #14 Entries: 564
Event #14 Players Remaining: 58
Scotty Nguyen (Las Vegas, NV) may have fell short of his ultimate goal, but he does add his first ever Isle Casino Pompano Park cash to an already incredible resume. |
After Jonathan Jaffe opened the action for a raise at Table 1, players would fold around to Scotty Nguyen, who shoved on the button (85,000). The blinds folded behind, with Jaffe quickly making the call:
Nguyen: J♠ J♦
Jaffe: K♠ K♦
Runout: Q♠ Q♦ A♦ A♣ 8♦
Scotty would be in bad shape when the cards were tabled, and after whiffing the flop, he'd need to hit a two-outer on the turn or river. No jack would appear on the final streets, and the former WSOP Main Event champ would be eliminated in 59th place ($2,680). Scotty's presence in the tournament was enjoyed by almost all of the players he shared the table with, as he brought life to the felt.
