New den, good chance it worked. They can't build the complete den with the back-up hole overnight. I've soaked a good size rag with gasoline and closed the hole up, worked 3 out of 3 times on new dens.
These critters are a lot smarter then most would think, and they have a pretty decent will to survive from what I have seen of them.
Established dens, you have to find all the holes, some have more then one back up exit and they can rotate to other dens from what I have observed. I caught 2 by hand in June and after taming a young one,(had that one for a month) the other never liked me much, both were relocated to old dens that were not in use along an embankment, no bother to me any more. I do have 1 or 2 more young ones to deal with, they may not be so fortunate, population has to be culled or they get out of control in a years time.
Young ones are easy to catch by hand in the right situation, I've been doing it for years knowing how to get an advantage over them where they will stand their ground and not run. Just wear thick gloves, they can deliver a nasty bite, something I have not experienced and do not want to LOL !
