Die Hard Fans

Kudos is in order for the many fans who have stuck around to follow the action this late into the evening (morning now). Glancing around the room, there aren't many empty seats in the house and several fans are still lining the rail on both sets of stairs and on the balcony that overlooks the main floor.

Hand #271 - Stanislav Alekhin
