Keranen and Van Nguyen Keep Clashing
Level 23
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Over on one of the secondary featured tables Kyle Keranen and Anh Van Nguyen just battled it out in back-to-back pots.
First we saw a hand get checked down after the flop with quite a lot in the middle on a 
board. Keranen showed 
and lost to Van Nguyen's 
.
On the very next hand Van Nguyen raised to 51,000 and the button called. Keranen called from the big blind and the flop came down 
. The action was checked to the button who bet 60,000.
Keranen made the call and Van Nguyen opted to check-raise to 227,000. The button folded and Keranen made the call.
On the turn the 
hit and both players checked. The river was the 
and Keranen lead out for 240,000, after which Van Nguyen tanked and folded.
