Jensen's Flush Sends Nguyen to the Rail

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Frederik Jensen raised to 180k from under the gun and Peter Nguyen three-bet to 425k from middle position. The action folded back around to Jensen, and he moved all in for 1.5m. Nguyen had fewer chips than Jensen but made the call to put his tournament life on the line.

Frederik Jensen: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Peter Nguyen: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Board: {3-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Clubs}

Nguyen found himself in a dominated position and needed a lot of help from the board, but it was Jensen who improved. The flop brought the spade nut flush draw for Jensen and when the jack of spades hit the turn the hand was over and Nguyen's exit was confirmed. Nguyen takes 83rd place for $77,695.
