Mike Matusow and Steve Zolotow are both out of the tournament. Matusow made his stand in razz, taking A-2 / J up against Jason Walsh's 5-4 / 7. Matusow finished with a king-jack, which was definitely no good against Walsh's 7-5.
Zolotow's stand came in the stud round. His board came 
and a pair card for a final hands of kings up. That was no good against David Singer's

"Good luck, everyone," said Zolotow. "Play well."
