Champ Checks In

Scott Nguyen just made an appearance, checking out the action among the final dozen tables. His walking through the Amazon Room here on Day 5 brings to mind for many his deep run in last year's Main Event when he finished 11th. Nguyen won the WSOP Main Event in 1998.

Nguyen stopped at Phil Hellmuth's table, and Hellmuth tipped his cap to him, saying "The H.O.R.S.E. champion, everyone." Nguyen responded by wishing good luck to Hellmuth, the lone WSOP Main Event winner left in the field.
