Level 24
: 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
There are no friends at the poker tables, a fact that Duc Nguyen has recently discovered, to his cost. It was Nguyen’s fellow countryman Hoa Thinh Nguyen (no relation) who kicked off proceedings by moving all-in from middle position. Big blind Duc Nguyen squeezed his cards and then made the call.

Hoa Thinh Nguyen: 
With no spade in hand and his tournament life on the line the all black 
flop was not a good one for Duc Nguyen, while the 
turn doubled his outs with the seven of spades not being good for a full house.
There was no miracle, however, as the 
hit the river and brought Duc Nguyen’s Main Event to a close and he departed in 11th place taking home the equivalent of $6,399 while Hoa Thinh Nguyen stacked up to1,525,000.
