That Must Be One Helluva Massage

Since the beginning of this $10,000 World Championship, David Oppenheim has been receiving a massage. From our observation, the same massage therapist has been working on him the whole time.

Steve Zolotow is currently at Oppenheim's table and is impressed with his massage therapist's flexibility. He stood up and tried to emulate her motions, shook his head, and sat back down.

Zeidman Gets No Customers

On 3rd street Cory Zeidman completed with the {K-Clubs} and on 4th street he received the {J-Hearts}. He fired a bet and his two opponents both folded.

Zeidman then flashed the {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} in the hole for a monster two pair, but unfortunately for him he'll have to be content with only a small pot.

Oppenheim Gets It Wong

Fu Wong fired bets all the way and David Oppenheim called him down. Oppenheim showed {4-Spades}{7-Spades}{9-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} but mucked when Wong tabled ({5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}) {5-Hearts}{A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} ({10-Clubs}) for trips to collect a very nice pot.

Oppenheim has been travelling well this morning to increase his stack to 33,000 despite this loss, while Wong is now up to 74,000.
