November Niners Collide; Nguyen Eliminated

Soi Nguyen's tumultuous day on the felt has come to an end. The 2010 November was just eliminated by 2008 November Niner Ivan Demidov. Nguyen was all in preflop with {A-Clubs}{K-Spades} against Demidov's {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}, and the board rolled out {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Diamonds} to send Nguyen to the rail.

Demidov, meanwhile, has cashed in his first event in the World Series of Poker since 2009 when he min-cashed a $1,500 No Limit Hold'em event for $2,808. His two WSOP cashes before that were for a combined $6.4 million — he took third place at the WSOP Europe Main Event ($608,995) and second in the WSOP Main Event ($5,809,595).
