Scotty Nguyen Eliminated in 4th Place ($31,610)

Scotty Nguyen was all in on fifth street vs. Hoyt Verner. At the showdown Nguyen's pair of fives were bested by Verner's pair of aces and Nguyen was eliminated.

Nguyen didn't look too happy as he was leaving the table, muttering and cursing under his breath. Though he was unhappy about his elimination, he was more upset with the dealer, who had made several errors in the hands leading up to Nguyen's elimination (exposing cards, etc.)
