Jason DeWitt, the 2010 champion of this event, is also seated at this table. He's working with 6,500 right now.
Scott Nguyen opened the action to 900 from early position. The player in the cutoff made the call and with the blinds out of the way, the dealer readied three cards.
Flop:
On the flop, Neguyen checked and then called a bet of 1,000 from his opponent. Both players then checked the turn and it was on to the river. Nguyen again check-called a bet, this time of 1,400.
"Alright baby, let's see if i lose with king-king again," said Nguyen as he tabled . His opponent turned over , with the rivered set enough to give him the win.

A player in middle position opened up the pot to 850. The player in the cutoff made the call, along with Phil Hellmuth on the button.
Flop:
On the flop, the preflop aggressor checked and the cutoff bet 1,000. It didn't take long for Hellmuth to raise it up to 2,500. This bet was too strong for both of his opponents as he raked in the small pot to his chip stack sit a little healthier than it was five minutes ago.
However, we turned around for just a minute or two and when we looked back at Hellmuth's table he looked a little tilted as an opponent raked in a pot against him and it was back to square one.
