Day 2 Completed

Day 2 Concludes

Play for Day 2 has concluded. We will come back tomorrow at 3 p.m. and play down to the winner of this $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo World Championship. David Benyamine, Mike Matusow, Berry Johnston, Chau Giang, and David Chiu are among the players returning to take their shot at the bracelet. Join us tomorrow for all the exciting action.

Patrick Rao Eliminated in 19th Place ($22,090)

Patrick Rao was crippled in a three way pot with Jason Gray and Chau Giang. The board read {J-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{5-Spades} with Giang taking the high with {4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} for a straight while Gray collected the low with {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. Rao was left to muck his cards as he was down to only 15,000 chips.

He was all in shortly after with {2-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{Q-Spades}{4-Diamonds} against the {A-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{4-Hearts}{8-Hearts} of Berry Johnston. The board ran out {A-Spades}{2-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} to give Johnston the wheel and send Rao to the payout desk in 19th place as our last elimination of the day!

The Best Of The Mouth

It's a very quiet scene here in the Brasilia Room at 2 a.m. There are a couple of satellite tables finishing at the front of the room, with the rest of the 65 table room empty for the exception of our last three tables.

The atmosphere is very quiet and a little tense, that is until Mike Matusow breaks out into random bouts of singing.

Some of his recent hits include:

"Oh I Don't Have Enough Chips Yet!"

"I'm Gonna Get Them All!"

and the classic..."Poker Poker It's All Skill!"

Look for his CD in your local music stores sometime soon!
