Scotty Nguyen's Run at the 2007 WSOP

Scotty Nguyen
Here's what Scotty Nguyen has done so far at the 2007 WSOP:

$10,000 Pot Limit Omaha - 15th place
$1,000 Seven Card Stud 8 - 4th place
$5,000 Heads Up No Limit Hold'em - 17th place
$3,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Low - 2nd place
$2,500 Omaha/Seven Card Stud Hi/Lo 8 - 10th place

He made two final tables and lost to Eli Elezra heads up in $3,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Low. He has won almost $190,000 at this year's WSOP. Scotty is among the short stacks but out of the other 35 remaining players, he's the biggest character and personality left in the main event. He also happens to be the only player that has won the main event.

A Matter of Appearance

[user37786]
[user37786]
Before play started Kevin Kim traded three of his 25,000 chips for 5,000's, because he's short-stacked and he hopes that having more chips in front of him (even if they're of lesser value) will be more intimidating to his opponents. We'll see how well that works.

Featured Table - Table #4

The ESPN Featured Table is Table #4 at the start of the day, with a lot of mid-level chip stacks. Nobody's particularly short, but none of the huge stacks are here either. There should be a lot of play.

Robin Bergren Eliminated in 36th Place ($285,678); Allan W. King Eliminated in 35th Place ($285,678)

Robin Bergren - 36th Place
Robin Bergren - 36th Place
Two players were eliminated on the first hand. With the shortest stack remaining, Robin Bergren shoved from UTG for 560,000. In middle position, Allan King called. Roy Winston moved all in for 1,700,000. King called.

Bergren: {10-Clubs}{6-Spades}
King: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Winston: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

The flop was {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{4-Clubs}. The turn was the {A-Spades}. The river was the {K-Diamonds}. Winston won with a full house as Bergren and King headed to the rail. Bergren and King both won $285,678.

Paulo Loureiro, who was at the cut off, said that he folded pocket Jacks in that hand.
