Joseph Cain: 
Vuong Do: 
There was no ace or broadway straight on the 
board and that spelled the end for Cain, who left the table with a "nice playing with you guys, experience of a lifetime." Almost outside of the reach of the table, he then added a few curse words before leaving the tournament area.
