The table featuring Mike Matusow and Scott Seiver just broke, and they happened to be moved side-by-side to another table with Brad Ruben and Dario Sammartino.
"I'm running so bad right now. Mike just put a bad beat on me," Scott Seiver said with only the slightest touch of irony.
"I was so happy to be above starting stack for like two hands," Matusow added.
"Mike, have you ever heard of Primed Mind?" Seiver replied, pointing out the patch Ruben was wearing on his shirt.
"I'm in a great mind," Matusow said.
Ruben then went heads-up in a pot with Jared Talarico. Talarico bet on fourth and fifth streets before Ruben bet on sixth.
Talarico called, then opened the betting again on seventh. Ruben called.
Talarico then showed J♥8♦5♣ for trip fives and Ruben mucked.
