Modder Busts Two
Level 4
: 75/150, 0 ante
We arrived at the table preflop, with three sets of cards face up and two players with all of their chips committed. Ian Modder had both of the all-in players covered and their tournament lives were at risk.

The board ran out 
. Modder faded the sweat and was pushed the double-knockout pot.

Loni Harwell was eliminated when her 
could not catch up to her opponent's 
. We didn't see Greg Raymer's departure, but he did tweet about it:
short day in the turbo #WSOP23, doubled a short stack TT<AA, and lost two other pots to silly calls. #nowwhatFollow @FossilMan

You're a Joke!
Level 3
: 50/100, 0 ante
The floor was called over to a table and the player in Seat 1 was raising his voice as he explained to the dealer what was going on. We were not able to get the whole story but apparently Micah Raskin had pushed his chips forward but did not release them from his hand. The dealer made a mistake and tossed the all-in button towards Raskin before he released his chips. The player in Seat 1 quickly called but Raskin stated that he did not bet and had brought the chips back towards him.
The floor came over and ruled that since he had made a forward motion but not released his hand that it was not a binding all in action. The frustrated player tossed out a bet of 500, Raskin folded, and a verbal war started between the two.
"You're a joke! You're the biggest joke in here," said the player in Seat 1, over and over and over again.
Raskin sat there, looking like the cat that ate the canary.
"Supposed to be a pro? Angle shooting. You're a f***ing joke!"
"He directed the f-word at me," said Raskin. "Floor please," he asked the dealer.
While they were waiting on the floor the two continued to go at it with Raskin showing off his $40,000 watch (his description) and then challenging the youngster in Seat 1 to a $5,000 heads-up match.
"Set it up," said the kid. "Get your backers or whatever you need to do and let's go."
The floor came over and got the scoop but no one would fess up to the f-bomb actually being said. Raskin yelled at the kid "you're supposed to know the rules. Know the rules before you come play here!" The kid came back with "you're a joke" for about the 35th time in the last two minutes. The floor stepped in and told the two to quit talking to one another and that if they had to come back there would be penalties issued.
A player at the table behind them took this opportunity to chime in...
"Can't we all just get along?"
