Tom Nguyen Doubles Through Lee Markholt

Tom Nguyen announces he is all for his last 89,000 from under the gun. Lee Markholt calls from middle position and action turns to James Caldarero on Markholt’s left.  

Caldarero thinks for several moments, shuffles his chips, checks his cards and decides to fold. 

Nguyen flips over [Ks10c] while Markholt shows [QdQc]. Markholt’s Queens hold through a flop of [6d3s2h] but the [Kd] on the turn puts Nguyen ahead. The river is the [Ad] and Nguyen doubles up.

Tom Nguyen – 201,000 (20 bb)
Lee Markholt – 340,000 (34 bb)
