Mustafov is Eliminated With a "Nice Hand"
Kevin Ordet raised to 5,000 from late position, Fahredin Mustafov called from the cutoff, and Scott Watson overcalled from the big blind, stating, "I am only calling because you are in the hand," referring to Mustafov.
Mustafov stated, "Nice hand."
Watson joked, "You can't say nice hand preflop".
On the flop J♦K♥A♣, Watson checked and Ordet placed a continuation-bet of 7,000. Mustafov put in a raise to 26,000 and stated, "Nice bet," while Watson held a painful look on his face as he folded, and Ordet made the call.

On the river 7♣, Ordet moved all in for 42,000 effective, and Mustafov called.
Fahredin Mustafov: A♦J♠
Kevin Ordet: Q♦10♦
Mustafov had two pair, and Ordet held the straight for the win.
