Table Talk
The table talk in the room is captivating enough that they could air an audio-only broadcast of this tournament if they wanted to.
The conversations have covered pretty much every topic you can imagine, and a quick game of "Lodden Thinks" even broke out at Daniel Negreanu's table. It reminded him of a story, and he turned around in his chair to needle Andrew "LuckyChewy" Lichtenberger.
Apparently, Chewy was "Lodden" in a game last year, and he was asked to guess the distance from Miami to Los Angeles. "I know a mile's not that big," Chewy was explaining himself today, "and I know it's really far. Like, you don't want to drive there. So I guessed 500,000 miles."
The table all chuckled as Chewy turned red, and Bill Chen leaned over the table to confirm, "You thought it was 500,000 miles across the country? When you were younger?"
There was a bit of an awkward pause before Chewy answered, "Last summer..." The table all laughed again, and after another minute, he added "Good thing there's no correlation between common sense and poker."
