Nguyen Falls to Wantman on Money Bubble
Level 17
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Matthew Wantman opened from the hijack and Turbo Nguyen three-bet jammed a stack of 37,000 on the button. Wantman called with a bigger stack.
Turbo Nguyen: 10?10?
Matthew Wantman: K?J?
An elimination at another table meant that Nguyen was at risk of bubbling. The flop of J?5?9? gave Wantman a big lead.
"Life is good no matter what, guys," Nguyen said before the runout of 3?K? improved Wantman to two pair to mark Nguyen's elimination on the bubble.
"Stone bubble. Good game," Nguyen said as he left.
