Nguyen Defines Lucky Sevens After Turning Quads and Dodging the Royal Flush
The last blind level saw Nhut Nguyen run up his stack of 17,000 to 84,00. It started when an early position player opened for 3,600 and action on the table folded to Nguyen who three-bet all in for his last 17,000 from late position.
Action folded back to the initial raiser who went into the tank before ultimately making the call.
Nhut Nguyen: 
Opponent: 
Nguyen was ahead and saw a seven in the window as the flop fell 
.
The flop was one to remember with Nguyen flopping a set as his opponent held the royal flush draw, but it was the 
turn that made the hand unforgettable.
Nguyen turned quads but still had to sweat the river as he could still be eliminated with a diamond king.
The dealer then dropped the 
on the river and Nguyen took his seat as he got a much needed double up with quad sevens.
