Daniel Fuhs limped from early position, which according to his shaking his head looked like a misclick that was supposed to be a raise. Ben Ector and Long Duc Nguyen checked from the blinds. The flop came , action checked to Fuhs and he bet 150,000. Ector called, Nguyen mucked and the turn came . Both players checked, the river was and they checked again. Ector tabled and took the pot.
During the hand Layne Flack was talking to his rail - three guys - and commented how sad his fanbase was. The rail replied back to the rest of the table, "Don't you people have family or friends, where are they?"
Rheem replied, "Oh don't worry, if I win this thing I'll have friends showing up, lining out the door."
The table, the rail, the tournament officials all had a good laugh.
