Only one more elimination left before the night is brought to a close. We currently have nine players left, sitting at two tables, and we will be playing until the final eight are determined. So far there have been many chopped pots, with players short on chips looking for opportunities to split the pot or double up.

Can't Spank, Baby

[user38971]

While waiting for the final elimination of the evening, Scotty Nguyen told the table that he is anxious to get home to see Lucky and Jackpot. These are the names of Scotty's two pet monkeys.

"I got two monkeys, baby," Scotty said.
"Are they bad monkeys, Scotty? Can I spank your monkeys?" Woody Deck asked.
"Can't spank, baby. Too cute."

Nothing Better Than a Scotty Nguyen Chip

[user38971]

"Don't take my chips, baby," Scotty told Tom Schneider as Tom was selected to be moved to the other table. Since we're down to just nine players, a player is chosen at random, every 30 minutes, to be moved to the shorter table. This way each table alternates between four or five players every 30 minutes.

"There's nothing better than a Scotty Nguyen chip," Schneider replied to Scotty's request.
