The Sweater

Looking around this final table set, there are a few people that have been here since the beginning of the final table. These people are here supporting their friend or family member. It got me to thinking about the dedication it takes to be a sweater. Your job is to sit for a particular amount of time and root on your favorite player, sometimes for as many as 10 hours or more. What do they get in return? For some, they may have a piece of the person they are sweating and they are just awaiting a return on investment. For most, the reward of sweating is the joy of watching their player do well at the final table.

So here’s to you, sweating your favorite player until the wee hours of the morning guy!
