Late Arrival, Early Exit for Nguyen

Scotty Nguyen was the last player to arrive on stage for the Clubs Bracket Round of 64 matches. He's also the first player to exit the stage. Trailing in his match against Barry Greenstein, Nguyen called all in on a flop of {6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Nguyen was drawing with a king-high flush draw, {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, against Greenstein's flopped two pair, {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. The turn {6-Spades} gave Greenstein a full house and left the Prince of Poker drawing dead. Greenstein advances.
