Up and Down For Turbo
Poker can be a game full of roller coasters, and that was no better on display then in a hand that we just saw Phong "Turbo" Nguyen in.
The player under the gun open shoved all in for his last 15,400, and it folded around to Nguyen on the button. He announced, call, and the blinds got out of the way.

Opponent: 
"A fair fight," said Nguyen, correctly pointing out that they were in a 50-50 race. Well Nguyen shot out in front when the flop came down 
. Nguyen would just need to fade two outs now, but that didn't happen, as the 
came on the turn. Nguyen could still pair up again to get a full house, but the 
didn't do that.
Despite that hit, it's been a good few levels for Nguyen, as he is still sitting on 65,000.
