Chris Vitch Puts the Pony Back In the Bag

Talk on the rail prompted Chris Vitch to pull a pink My Little Pony toy from his bag to use as a card protector. He set it on the table, but it fell down.

"It's from one of those bags where you don't know which one you're going to get," Vitch explained.

Meanwhile, a hand developed.

Duhamel: {x-}{x-} / {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Vitch: {x-}{x-} / {4-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Duhamel completed. Vitch looked and pointed at his pink pony card protector.

"Alright, I'm going to give you one try," he said.

On fourth, Duhamel bet and Vitch promptly folded.

"Alright, you're going back in the bag," Vitch said jamming the toy back into his backpack. "I told you I didn't like card protectors!"

"You know, back in my college home game I used to have a Millenium Falcon that I used as a card protector," Randy Ohel said. "I haven't used that in years."
