Gamble Doesn't Pay Off For Moon as Nghiem Doubles

Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Benjamin Moon bet 2,400 from under the gun on a flop of K?9?7? and Huy Nghiem moved all in for 34,800 in the big blind. "Gamble," Moon said as he called.
Huy Nghiem: K?3?
Benjamin Moon: A?J?
Nghiem was ahead with a pair of kings, while Moon was on a flush draw. The J? turn gave Moon more outs, but Nghiem held on through the 7? river to earn the double up.
