Scotty Nguyen Thanks All

During the break, Scotty Nguyen walked through the tournament area with a floor person carrying a couple of racks of $5 chips. Scotty is tossing a few chips on each table for the dealers and also around to some of the media members and other members of the staff here at the WSOP.

The dealers are very happy and thankful to Scotty for his generosity.
