Featured Table: Scotty Nguyen Takes an 8.1 Million Pot From Tuan Lam
Lee Childs has the button in seat 9, Tuan Lam raises from the small blind to 500,000, and Scotty Nguyen calls from the big blind. The flop comes Kd Jc 3d , Lam checks, Nguyen bets 500,000, Lam raises to 1.5 million, and Nguyen quickly calls. There is now 4.1 million in the pot.

The turn card pairs the board with the Jh , Lam bets 2 million, and Nguyen thinks for more than a minute before he calls. There is 8.1 million in the pot.

The river card is the 6d, and the crowd reacts to the third diamond hitting the board. Lam checks, Nguyen bets 2 million, and Lam thinks for about a minute before he folds, leaving himself with about 13.8 million. The crowd explodes into applause as Scotty Nguyen wins the pot. Nguyen stands up and receives a congratulatory slap on the back from Raymond Rahme as he collects the pot.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not sure if anyone posted about this earlier but has anyone else noticed that Scotty's bets are what we would consider appropriate for the deep stacks? Not just this hand but others as well today. His raises don't pot commit him and they leave him room to bail while at the same time they give him enough value for his hands when he does make something and when his opp makes something a bit smaller but would never call a huge raise. I really want to see if ESPN catches this and focuses on this type of play as it *may* affect next years' WSOP ME (One can only hope, right?).

Scotty's playing what we like to call "poker".

Scotty appears to be wearing Full Tilt gear as well. Is he in line for the $10M?

[/ QUOTE ]

No idea. But he may soon be in this line: Moss, Brunson, Ungar, Chan...

[/ QUOTE ]

And he'd be the only one of them to have a win in the "modern era", which would really give him some bragging rights.
