There's a law in Nevada that you can't cover your face in a casino. Daniel Negreanu questioned whether or not wearing the masks was legal and complained a little bit about Roland De Wolfe and Tony G wearing the masks. The tournament staff is going to check in on whether or not the law is true. We'll see what happens and let you know.

The turn was the and Rousso checked. Schwartz thought the card was so sick and talked about he hated it. He eventually checked over to Benyamine and told him to go ahead. Benyamine was tanking and Schwartz was needling him into betting, saying that if Benyamine bet, he'd move all in so fast that Benyamine wouldn't know what hit him. The dealer than warned Schwartz that there was three players in the hand and that he needed to keep quiet.
Benyamine then bet 123,000 with just his pair of sixes. Rousso folded and Schwartz began going on about how he thought Benyamine just smacked a pair of kings on the turn after flopping a king-high flush draw. After a minute went by...
"F*** it! F*** it!" Schwartz announced, splash-shoving his chips across the line into the middle. "With my heads up game, I'll beat anyone in this PartyPoker!" he yelled out as he stood up just after shoving in. Benyamine quickly folded his hand and Schwartz let him have it.
First, he walked a little towards Benyamine and pumped his hands at him, celebrating that he won the hand by reading the situation correctly. "In your eye David Benyamine! You think you can angle me?!?! You just got so pwned!" he yelled out.
Schwartz paced around as the dealer pushed the pot his way. "Thinks he's 10 years older than me so he knows!" he went on to say. "I had just a pair of jacks!"

The tournament director took the masks away from the table and Tony G and De Wolfe looked a little bummed out like two kids having their favorite toys taken away.
