Frye Busts to Nguyen

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

After a raise by the player in the under-the-gun position, a short-stacked Jeffrey Frye moved all in for 4,850 and the next two players folded. While this happened, the dealer swooped up the cards and accidentally grabbed one of Frye's cards, which immediately triggered some confusion. The floor was called and the players were asked which cards they had, the floorman then inspected all cards before giving Frye one card back. Action folded all the way around to Scotty Nguyen in the small blind and he called, the initial raiser folded.

Frye turned over {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Nguyen had the {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}... there was no upset story on a board of {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{6-Hearts} and Frye was eliminated.

"Sorry man, I didn't even look at my cards, I wouldn't do that," Nguyen apologized to Frye after all was done and dusted, a large rail had gathered nearby to see all unfold.
