A Lesson From The Master

"The Master" during Day 1 action
"The Master" during Day 1 action
We caught the action on the turn with the board reading {2-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Men "The Master" Nguyen fired out a bet of 5,000 and Rodney Davidson thought for a moment before making the call.

The river was the {7-Spades} and Nguyen thought for a long time before checking. Davidson instantly moved all in for his last 18,100 chips. Nguyen went into the tank, cut out his chips, and made the big call.

Davidson shrugged his shoulders and flipped {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades} for just ace high, as Nguyen revealed {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for just a pair of sevens! A remarkable call by Nguyen that received the admiration from all at the table, even Davidson, who couldn't help but feel unfortunate to be exiting the tournament.

"He bet too much!" said Nguyen as he now sits with 60,000 chips.
