His opponent never shows up so Singer has to play in order to blind the missing player off. Speculation is that Phil Hellmuth, who usually shows up late for tournaments, is missing his seat again. Other players nearby are giving Singer a hard time and Gavin Smith tried to occupy the missing player's seat.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]"The line has got to be 6000-to-1 over there." - Jean-Robert Bellande[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]"I'm the only one thinking I can win." - David Singer[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sun Jul 16 13:39:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Woods Increases His Stack[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]James Woods bets $150 in the small blind and the big blind raises him to $600.

Matusow discovers on the back of the chip a picture of him shrunk down to fit the chip. He walks around for a few minutes, showing the chip off to Scotty Nguyen and other players before signing the chip and returning it to his fan.
