Sorel Mizzi was calling a preflop re-raise when we reached the table, and the dealer then fanned 
. Mizzi's opponent moved all in for his last few thousand or so, and Mizzi made the call.

The

bricked on the river.
Mizzi has around 3,000 in front of him, along with his two 10,000-chip lammers.

We were walking near Table 17 moments ago, when a player wanted to tell us about a sick hand Noah Schwartz played.
"I don't know if you can handle it," Mike Matusow interjected. "You might vomit."
We assured The Mouth that we can stomach almost anything, so the table began recounting the hand. According to the players, Schwartz opened to 300, a player on his left called, and another player on the button three-bet to 1,300. Schwartz called, and then the player on his right potted to 5,550. The player on the button and Schwartz called.
The flop came 
with two spades, and Matusow said that Schwartz, "smashed the flop." We're assuming that means he got the money in, because all three players' hands were shown down:
| Schwartz |    |
| Opponent 1 |   |
| Opponent 2 |    |
The turn was the , giving Opponent 2 extra outs to scoop, but the river was a none-spade four, giving Schwartz the best hand.
"Bink," Matusow added at the end of the story, along with his signature cackle.
Schwartz hasn't cashed in either of his 10,000-chip lammers, but if you combine them with the chips he has in play, he's basically doubled up.
We reached Table 8 after the flop had already fallen 
. Sam Stein and Austin Scott checked, and Chance Kornuth bet 600. Stein check-raised to 3,000, and Scott called. Kornuth tanked, then re-raised the pot, and Stein called all in. Scott tank-folded, and the hands were open.
| Stein |    |
| Kornuth |   |
The on the turn gave Stein extra outs, but the 
bricked on the river, forcing him to cash in one of his lammers.

Khiem Nguyen took fifth place in Event 26 ($3,000 PLO) for $83,180, but is off to a rough start today.
Picking up the action at the tail end of the hand, Noah Schwartz was pondering a decision for about 4,500 from Nguyen after the river of a 
board. Schwartz mulled it over, ultimately opting to call.
"Just a seven," said Nguyen.
Schwartz tabled 
for aces and jacks to take down the pot. As a result, Nguyen used the first of his two remaining rebuy chips.
In Las Vegas, 12:15 p.m. is considered "the morning." So we really can't blame Phil Ivey for wishing his new friend Brian Hastings a "good morning" moments ago when he came barreling through an emergency exit.
Through the first five minutes of play, we've heard various dealers yell, "Rebuy! Table ___!"
No, that doesn't mean a player's gone broke, it simply means that they've chosen to cash in one of their two 10,000-chip lammers. Each player stars with 10,000 in chips, and two lammers. At any time they can exchange them for chips, or they can hold to them until the end of level four, where they are taken off the table in exchange for chips.
For the time being however, we will still list each player as having a 30,000-chip starting stack.
