Look, Ma -- I'm on TV!
After Raymond Rahme emerges victorious from an all in pot, his rowdy cheering section stands up and chants "Africa!"
There's a big smile on Rahme's face as he glances above and sees his big smile splashed on a TV screen. He leans back to get a better view of his mug and someone yells out to him from the audience "You look good, baby!" -

A Nervous Dad
Lee Childs' father, who is sweating him from the audience, is typically a pretty relaxed guy . . . that is, unless his son is in a pot.
As Lee put in a raise to 1.1 million, his father leapt to his feet, his eyes laser-focused on the action. Once his son's opponent folded, Mr. Childs' face relaxed and he sat back down.
"Good job, Lee!" he said to his son, supportively.
