Event 1: Lost in the Woods

We only caught the tail end of a hand involving actor and poker enthusiast James Woods, but that end was enough to see Woods drop a chunk of change to an opponent on his immediate left.

The board contained the {3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} along with two unidentified cards, and facing a large bet of 7,500 from Anthony Gamiz, Woods announced his intention to call.

"Call?" asked Gamiz in excitement, signalling he had received the response he was looking for. Sure enough, Gamiz rolled over {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} for the second nut flush, and Woods was unable to produce a superior holding.

With the loss, Woods is riding a short stack, but that problem can be quickly remedied in this re-entry event.
