On a board reading , an unknown player checked to Sam Grizzle and he fired out a bet. A call ensued and then the same action occurred on the river. "Small philly," Grizzle said in his unique drawl and rolled over for a full house.
"You know what a small philly is?" Grizzle asked to Ed Brogdan, who spots a Doyle-like cowboy hat. "You grow up on a ranch?"
Brogdan shook his head affirmative that he knew that a "small philly" was a full house and added, "We all knew you had that."
"He didn't," Grizzle reacted and pointed to the unsuspecting caller. Grizzle is sitting just over the chip average with 10,000.
We haven't had the chance to write much on the defending champ of this event, Aaron Steury, though we can confirm he is holding steady over at Table 27. We can't seem to catch him in a hand, but that doesn't mean he's not getting involved, as evidenced by his Twitter.
NDGrinder Aaron SteuryLost a bizarre razz hand where I had (A2) 5 to start 3 bets 3 ways and the ole T873 board bet 6th and 7th into 3467 and my 5Q32 boardJune 13 2012
We can also confirm that Steury took time during the dinner break to serve as a guest on the PokerNews Podcast, which should available soon in itunes.
Here's a look at some of the Twitter talk from the dinner break:

Players are now on a 90-minute dinner break. Right now the tournament clock says 470 players remain of the 889 that started. Upon their return, the players will play four more levels before calling it a night.
Mike Sexton, who recently announced that he will be playing the $1 million buy-in Big One for One Drop next month, is building a nice stack here on Day 1. Sexton just took down a nice pot in the Limit Hold'em round to surpass the 8,000 mark.
A player in the cutoff raised preflop and Sexton called from the big blind. Sexton checked-called the flop and then both players checked through the turn. When the hit the river, Sexton bet 600 and got a reluctant call from his opponent. Sexton tabled for two pair, and hit opponent mucked.
