Gordon and Nguyen Chop

[user80015]

Level 12

Omaha-8

Scotty Nguyen opened under the gun with a raise to 5,000 and defending champion Ian Gordon made the call from the big blind.

Gordon checked the {A-Spades} {A-Hearts} {3-Clubs} flop as Nguyen bet out 2,500. Gordon raised to 5,000 and Nguyen moved all in for 6,400 with Gordon making the call.

Gordon: {10-Clubs} {5-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds}
Nguyen: {A-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {2-Clubs}

With Nguyen a lock for half the pot, he would unfortunately see the {6-Diamonds} grace on the turn to award half the pot to Gordon, and after the meaningless {7-Hearts} completed the board on the river, Nguyen moved to just shy of 12,000 as Gordon sat with 44,000 in chips.
