The qualifiers who made their way here have been in a celebratory mood. Many are flush with large sums of newly won cash. And those who are no richer are still vacationing in Melbourne, Australia, which is a good thing.
Last night a group of qualifiers, Full Tilt staff, and a couple of Full Tilt pros made their way to the bowling alley here at the Crown for some drinks and proposition bets.
Gavin Smith and Jonas Bukas entered into the most interesting bet of the night. Both Gavin and Jonas are hat wearers. Gavin is never seen without his backwards baseball cap, and Jonas seems to live in an Armani beanie.
Before the final game, Jonas and Gavin decided to wager their hats: the winner would get the loser’s headgear.
It was a tight match. Jonas bowled consistently, hitting eight or nine pins on most of his rolls, and making a number of spares. Gavin was more erratic, but managed consecutive marks twice in the game, and went into the tenth frame with a lead. Jonas needed 20 pins in the tenth frame. He started well, hitting nine on his first ball. But he failed to make his spare, giving Gavin the win.
Jonas collapsed to the ground. Somehow, Gavin ended up with with a microphone, and he proceeded to interview is forlorn opponent.
But ever-gracious, Gavin signed his had and gave it to Jonas, who wore it proudly for the rest of the evening.
