Overheard at the Tables

Blue #31

"...I turned my hand over and the guy said, 'That wins.' Then he said, 'Oh wait!' A 650,000 chip pot. No way he should have done that."

"Back a few years ago, you were allowed to hit a guy for that. They'd just ban you for twenty minutes..."

Green #5

[after counting down the table chip leader's stack]: "I just need to count something."

Blue #11

"He's not gonna root that hard against himself..."

Blue #35

Jeremiah Smith approached Mark Vos' table and was stopped by a security guard, who asked to see Smith's media badge.

Vos: "This gentleman's name is Jeremiah Smith. He came into today as one of the chip leaders."
