Why Show Up Late for Day Two?

Jeremiah Teal, sitting at Table 3, seat 1, arrived 45 minutes late today. When asked about it, he replied that he didn't oversleep or forget the time, he just wanted to get a nice breakfast and come in on his own terms, relaxed and ready to play.

Teal started the day with 83,500 in chips, which is a healthy stack, but he says that didn't factor into his decision. He's played some games with Freddy Deeb, and Deeb once told him he left a final table for an extended break when he had just 30 big blinds -- his frame of mind was more important than the chips. Teal remembers that advice, and put it into practice today.
