#602 – World Series Final Table #15 – Sabretooth
Not far behind me, in the first row of the audience, one of Dennis Phillips’s 300 supporters periodically “livens things up” by shouting out Dennis’s initials. This guy, however, manages to call out these 14 letters in about 2 seconds, and he does it without using any consonants. He’s very loud, this kind of mealy bellow. At one point, I looked back and saw his mouth open, and it looked to me like he was dentally challenged. Hence the nickname.
It’s 11:30 PM and we’ve just gone on break. We’re 4-handed and have 43 minutes left in level 37, 300k-600k/75k.

You’re doing great work over there Sir. I’m sorry I’m not in town to enjoy it. Michelle (my girlfriend) and her kids are all under the weather and I am on duty with hot-water-bottles, cups of tea and bowls of soup. I am, however, enjoying the pleasure vicariously thanks to your regular updates and anecdotes.
Keep ‘em coming!
