We picked up the action on fifth street between 1996 WSOP Main Event champ Huck Seed and WSOP APAC bracelet winner Jim "Mr_BigQueso" Collopy.

Collopy: (x-x) / /
Unfortunately the dealer was a bit too fast and we couldn't get all the cards jotted down before they were swiped away. What we do know is that Seed made a 6-5-4-3-2 low and Collopy bricked out.
"Tomorrow you'll be glad you busted this little tournament," Seed joked after Collopy stated that he would return to the Rio for the Millionaire Maker. If Collopy manages to win it, Seed's words may well prove true.
After a player brought it in, Ben Yu completed to 600 with an and another player raised 1,200 with a showing. Huck Seed, who had a out in front of him, made the call, the player that brought it in folded, and Yu came along to make it three-way action to fourth street.
Yu had the best hand showing but checked. The unknown player bet 600, both Seed and Yu called, and all three players saw fifth street. By now all three players held pairs, and the unknown player checked. Seed bet 1,200, Yu folded, and the other player called. Seed bet again on sixth, and this time it did the trick as his opponent released his hand.
Bryan Campanello topped a field of 301 players to win the $2,500 buy-in version of this event last year, which technically makes him the defending champ. Campanello has been cruising along all night, but he's been having a rough go of it here in Level 10.
In a recent hand, Campanello called the completion from Brad Albrinck, who won the World Series of Poker Circuit stop in Cincinnati back in September for $221,994. Campanello then called a bet of 800 on fourth street, but ended up folding on fifth before Albrinck even had a chance to bet.
We won't connect the dots, but we will say that Rep Porter was recently moved to the left of Matt Waxman, which may provide some context to this tweet.
