With the board reading , Scotty Nguyen and Mike Matusow were tangling in an entertaining hand.
Nguyen fired a bet from the small blind and snarled, "Give it up, baby!"
"King-Queen?" quizzed Matusow.
Nguyen broke out in hysterical laughter as Matusow threw his cards into the muck in disgust. Nguyen brought a smile back to Matusow when he flashed him for top two pair.
Matusow is struggling with 111,000 while the defending champion is moving well with 195,000 chips.
Eli Elezra has doubled up just before the break in a hand of Razz. He was all in by fifth street against Freddy Deeb with the board running out as follows.

Elezra could only muster up a jack-low but it was good enough to take the pot as he doubles up to 31,000 to stay alive!
