Jeremy Scharf just eliminated his opponent after turning a bigger set.
The two players got all in on the turn and Scharf had turned a set of tens. His opponent had flopped a set of eights.
The river card made no difference and sent Scharf's opponent to the rail.
"Sorry man," said Scharf to his opponent.
"Why are you sorry?" another player questioned, "How many times has that happened to you?"
Feeling bad didn't change the fact that Scharf is now over 70,000 after the hand.

Daniel Negreanu joined the field recently and as usual, is very chatty with his table. While discussing the many tournaments available at the PCA, he mechanically tossed out a raise of 475.
Two players called and the dealer placed the 
flop on the table. The action checked to Negreanu, who paused his conversation long enough to make his 900 chip bet.
The first player folded and the second player was thinking for a moment.
"The worst hand you would shove with here is pocket sixes," he said jokingly.
His opponent folded and Negreanu took the small pot.
