Upon joining the table Traniello was greeted by Luske who soon challenged him to an arm-wrestling competition. We're not exactly sure why the challenge was offered, but it looks like they've decided to stick to battling it out on the felt instead.

Bill Chen went all in with buried kings. His opponent held split jacks. Chen's hand never improved and his opponent caught a pair of queens to go with his jacks, and Chen was sent to the rail.
Scott Bohlman found himself all in against three opponents including Greg Raymer and Nenad Medic. With action on all streets Raymer ended up collecting the low with a 7-6-5-4-3 while another opponent took the high with a queen-high flush.
Bohlman had outs to improve to beat both hands on the river but finished with an eight low and a ten-high flush to be eliminated in unfortunate circumstances.
The distraction is working for him at the moment as he sits with 14,000 chips.
