Blom Makes a Seven on Hamid
Mike Matusow just entered the tournament, taking his seat in a customized chair with his name emblazoned on the back.
"Hey David, how many tournaments are you going to have chips in this year?" he called out to David "ODB" Baker at an adjacent table.
"Hopefully all of them," Baker replied.
"I can't get any. I go to bed dreaming of ending the day with a starting stack," Matusow added.
"I'm Day 1 Dave this year. Hopefully I'll be Day 2 Dave eventually," Baker said.
Baker was a mere spectator on the most recently hand at his table as Sami Hamid raised in the cutoff, Viktor Blom reraised, and Hamid called.
Hamid drew two and Blom one. Blom then bet and Hamid called.
Hamid took two more on the second draw and Blom bet after drawing one again. Hamid called and drew one, while Blom stood pat and bet.
Hamid called and Blom showed 7x6x5x4x2x to win the pot.
