Nguyen all smiles after finding his double

Ray Henson raised to 205,000. Anh Van Nguyen moved all in from the big blind, declaring, "All the marbles!" He moved all in for 765,000 and Henson called.

Henson: {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs}
Nguyen: {4-Hearts} {4-Spades}

The flop came down {K-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {8-Hearts} and Henson picked up a pair of kings to take the lead. Nguyen wasn't too far out the door as he did hold the only heart in his hand.

The turn brought the {7-Clubs} and didn't help Nguyen. He would need a heart or a four on the river in order to double up and stay alive.

The dealer delivered all the heart Nguyen needed when the baby {2-Hearts} smacked on the river. Henson lost the pot and about half of his stack to Nguyen, who now has over 1.5 million in chips.
