Vanessa Selbst has the button. She completes the small blind. Alec Torelli makes it 52,000 to go, and Selbst folds.

During the last few hands, Torelli has been telling Selbst the story of a hand he played earlier this week in a big cash game as if the two are out for a stroll in the park.

Emcee Robbie Thompson said over the P.A. system, "In case you guys couldn't hear that, Alec was telling a bad beat story."

Torelli protested, "No, it was just me being a retard."
