Railers Of The Day

There are a lot of people railing here, many of them tourists asking annoying questions of the media like whether this is the final table, but there are a few railers who deserve a mention.

Mr. David Docherty, a young Scottish player who already cashed in event #1 and is now hoping to go similarly deep in the main event, has turned up today with a variety of enthusiastic supporters including a few poker buddies, and his mum. They are calling themselves Poker Friends United, and most admirably seem to be settling themselves down for what they hope to be five days of railing, interrupted only by Day 1b tomorrow. Docherty hasn't moved much from his starting stack, and is at a fearsome table also involving Matt Lagarde, Sandra Naujoks, Cristiano Blanco and Dario Minieri, so it could be a long and tense day for them. Nevertheless we like to see that kind of camaraderie in the poker world. Good on them.
