Men Nguyen failed to progress into the latter stages of the WSOPE Event#1. Annette Obrestad was a big center of attention today, and she had to deal with a lot of tough players at her table.

It began with Mike Matusow, and the two were soon joined by Justin “BoostedJ” Smith and a rotating cast of other mischievous characters. Obrestad stuck around for a good while but went busto in Level 5 before the dinner break rush kicked in. Smith and Matusow didn't fare much better; neither managed to survive the day.

WSOP Player of the Year leader Frank Kassela was an early out, as were Men Nguyen, Sorel Mizzi, Brandon Cantu, and Antonio Esfandiari, to name just a few.
