Event 5: Hinds Taking Control, Nyugen Stays Alive

Back to back hands proved to bring some excitement to the table.

John Hinds had his big blind raised to 150k from the button by Larry Samet.  Hinds made the call and saw a A-A-6 flop hit the board.  Hinds checked and Samet bet 225k but Hinds took a few seconds and went all-in.  Samet quickly folded and Hinds pushed up to 2.1 million.  Hinds has been slowly taking command of the table.

On the next hand, Danny Santiago bet out to raise Chin Nguyen's big blind.  Nguyen fired back going all-in.  Santiago made a quick call and Nguyen was not happy.  Santiago showed AQ♣ against his A5.  But in the end it was Nguyen celebrated as he spiked a 5 on the river and raised his chipstack to approximately 1 million.
