Sizzling Vinegar

Although we've been blessed with the iconic presence of Johnny Chan, the crowd is surprisingly thin on the ground, unlike the frantic bedlam of yesterday. Perhaps it's due to the contrasting personalities of who's appearing - whilst Hellmuth is guaranteed to put on a show, Chan is more likely to sit in silence for the duration of the day, and thus not be of much interest to a pack of action-hungry spectators.

In fact, everything up here seems to be fairly subdued, the players still in bed-time mode and playing in a rather lack-lustre fashion. Maybe it's just a lack of cards at the right times, but I'm in dire need of a big pot to spice things up.

As a certain British commentator once said, "The atmosphere is so tense, if Elvis walked in with a portion of chips, you'd hear the vinegar sizzle on them."

Dare I say it... I miss Hellmuth.
