"GET THE F*** OUT OF HERE!!!!!!"
Barry Leventhal just shouted this from the back of the room, then took his cards, threw them 20 feet into the air, and left the room.
Whoa.
We didn't see the hand, but we're assuming he was eliminated on the hand.

From under the gun Ari Engel opened for 3,000, Joshua Weizer called from the button and the small blind called as well. The flop came 
and all three players checked. The turn brought the 
on board, the small blind checked and Engel bet 2,100. Weizer raised to 6,200, the small blind got out of the way and Engel made a thoughtful call.
The river paired the board with the 
and Engel checked. Weizer bet 11,100 and Engel took some time to think. After a few moments Engel called and Weizer smiled as he tabled 
for a busted straight and flush draw. Engel tabled 
for aces up and took the pot.

A short-stacked player was all in preflop against Daniel Buzgon, and Buzgon's 
had his opponent's 
crushed. The board ran 
, and Buzgon recorded the knockout.
"How do you get it in there with ace-eight and have him drawing to three outs?" Jared Jaffee joked. "The day your book comes out, I'm going to be the first in line at Barnes & Nobles."
The table laughed.
"I haven't played in a while," Buzgon responded, grinning.

The action folded to Phong "VIP" Nguyen, who raised to 4,000 from the small blind. The player in the big blind moved all in - having Nguyen well covered - and Nguyen went into the tank.
"I hope we're flipping," Nguyen said, tossing the rest of his chips forward.
He wasn't.

The dealer burned one card then fanned

"WOW!!!" Nguyen exclaimed.
The 
on the turn gave Nguyen the nut-flush, ending the hand, and a meaningless deuce fell on the river to complete the board. Nguyen was fortunate, and doubled to 68,000 chips.
