On the turn with the board reading 4d3h2hTs, Qui Nguyen got all in for his last 5,200 from middle position against Eric Afriat under the gun.

Afriat showed 9h6s and needed to hit a five against Nguyen’s 4h4s. The river was the Th and Nguyen doubled up with a full house.

“You’re a crazy poker player,” said Afriat after the hand.

Afriat made a few more remarks to the reigning WSOP Main Event champion, alluding to a preflop three-bet with his small pair. Nguyen just laughed and didn’t give much of a response as he stacked the chips.

Qui Nguyen – 25,000
Eric Afriat – 119,000
