Kenny Nguyen is in rare form again. He's still sporting his lucky shirt from yesterday, a custom Dolphins jersey with his name on the back. Number 01 of course. He's keeping the table light by cracking jokes and having more fun than anyone else.
Kyle White opened for 44,000 and action folded all the way around to Nguyen in the big blind. "Do you want me to fold blind or go all in blind?" Nguyen asked White.
"I want you spill your red bull on your cards so your hand is dead," White replied.
"I'm gonna fold blind because I'm scared of this guy," Nguyen said as he folded his cards.
The rest of the table is split on whether he looked or not. "When's your next show?" someone asked.
As Kenny Nguyen found himself all-in over on table 286, we saw Anton Brenner walk out the door in 25th place. Unfortunately we were unable to catch the details of the hand, but we can tell you that he's walking out the door $21,054 richer today.
On the very next hand of Nguyen asking what he should blind, Nguyen announced he was all in blind from the small blind. William Douglas-Smith announced he'd call Nguyen's bet. Action folded around the table and the hands were tabled.

Some of the table laughed that Nguyen just happened to have pocket kings while betting blind, the smart money says he took a peek.
Board:
Douglas-Smith's trip jacks cracked Nguyen's kings and Nguyen's performance ended.
All the money was in the middle before the flop; Bryan Barrile was the short stack at risk with , but was in great shape against Foster Hays, who tabled .
Unfortunately for Barrile, the dealer spread the board of to give Hays the runner-runner nut flush. Hays is now dominating his table and has become the first player to move past the two million-chip mark.
The action folded to William Douglas-Smith who open-shoved from middle position; the action folded around to Kyle White who snap-called from the big blind, tabling against Douglas-Smith's .
However, Douglas-Smith managed to turn a full house on the board , leaving White with just a handful of chips.
Dylan Thomassie made it 42,000 to go from the small blind and Zachary Ray called from the big blind. The flop fell and Thomassie bet out 62,000 and Ray called. Both players checked the turn and the came on the river. Thomassie bet out 143,000 and Ray called.
The action folded to Allan Le who raised 34,000 before the flop, only to see Dennis Marcum reraise all-in for 144,000. Le called, tabling but once again it was off to the races against Marcum, who showed .
The flop was a demoralizing , giving Le the nut flush. Marcum was drawing thin to runners, but the repeat turn and river of , wasn't what he was looking for and Marcum was marched out in 21st place ($21,054).
