At the start of action Miguel Borrero and Kenny Nguyen were seated at the same table. Borrero announced to us that he was going to be the one to bust Nguyen. Apparently, the pair have a good-natured rivalry that has developed over the years.
Borrero opened from middle position to 525, another player called and Nguyen raised to 2,000 straight from the small blind. Borrero called and the other player got out of the way. The flop fell , Nguyen led out for 2,600 and Borrero called. Both players checked the turn and the fell on the river. Nguyen bet 10,200 and Borrero insta-called asking "You trying to bluff me?"
Borrero tabled and Nguyen was all smiles as he tabled , leaving himself nearly felted. On the very next hand Nguyen put his remaining 1,775 in on the button and Borrero called.

Borrero:
The board ran and Nguyen doubled up to 4,000 with his full house.
We'll be sure to note if Borrero does, in fact, bust Nguyen.
