All seemed well, until recently when Giang was sitting with both chairs facing with their backs to the table.
Just yards from us we just witnessed Giang's top chair unbalance itself from the one below, to see Giang fall flat on his back onto the floor. While moderately amusing, Giang was in some distress as he appears to have given his head a whack onto the dealer's chair of the table behind him.
"Bad beat Chau!" yelled Barry Greenstein from across the room as the players were all distracted by the fall.
A little dazed and still rubbing his head, Giang is now back in action, with just one chair, and in the traditional manner.
Giang has 32,000 chips.

.Selbst tabled
for over pair and flush draw, but would need to improve against Bhasin's for the rockets."Wow, I didn't think you had that!" quipped a nervous Selbst, but she need not have worried as she improved on both the
turn and river to finish with a flush and the pot.It seems Selbst likes to tangle with the Aussies. She first gained attention for her final table blow-up when Mark Vos won his bracelet in 2006. She then overcame another Aussie in Jamie Pickering in a rather "entertaining" heads-up display for the $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha bracelet last year.
Selbst clips another Aussie in Bhasin to double through to 54,000 with Bhasin back to the pack with 87,000.
