George Alexander raised to 50,000 on the button and Darren Elias called in the big blind.
Both players took one and Elias then led out for 100,000. While Alexander was thinking about the decision, someone in the room began a baritone rendition of "God Bless America." Daniel Negreanu gave the singer a round of applause and got up to doff his cap.
Alexander eventually called and Elias showed a pair of tens, while Alexander had J-10 to take the pot.
The next hand, Alexander raised to 50,000 in the cutoff and Negreanu three-bet to 175,000 on the button. Alexander called and took one, while Negreanu stood pat.
Both players checked and Alexander won the pot with a 10-9.
