Just before the dinner break we caught a big hand with Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott. When we arrived at the table, Ulliott had 7,100 laid out in front of him in and Don Cohn had moved all in from the big four 35,350. Ulliott didn't look too happy and asked for an exact count.
"Alright, I call. I can't fold," Ulliott said in his thick Hull accent. It was as he feared.
Ulliott:
Cohn:
It was a cooler for Ulliott, and he found no help as the board ran out . The good news was the Devilfish was left with chips, albeit a much smaller stack of 9,000.
Matt Salsberg came out firing on the first hand after dinner break, opening the action with a raise to 775. Only the big blind called. The flop came and Salsberg would make a bet of 500 after his lone opponent checked to him. His foe calld and the two both checked the turn and river.
Salsberg's opponent turned over for tens and fours and Salbserg mucked. The Hollywood writer and professional poker player still sits with a comfortable stack of 43,250 and warned everyone at his table via Twitter earlier exactly what he is:

While you wait for play to resume, check out this video featuring Pauly "Walnuts" Bianchi, who got into the WSOP Main Event in a very unique (and not recommended) way:
The 2007 World Series of Poker Main Event runner-up Tuan Lam has just been knocked out by Filipp Khavin.
Andy Frankenberger was kind enough to share the hand with us that started with a raise to 800. Lam called and Khavin three-bet to 3,600 from the small blind. The initial raiser folded and Lam called.
The flop brought out and Khavin bet 3,000 after which Lam moved all in for 7,000. Khavin called and the following showdown went like this:
