Handbags at dawn

Table 17 is not for the faint hearted.

I walk over to the table because a crowd is forming and Simon Munz is screaming the words "Queen Nine!" at the top of his voice. Nick Slade, two seats to his left, stands up and starts telling Munz to behave himself. He then proceeds to tell the tournament director to quiet Munz down, which he does.

The very next hand Munz limps and Slade raises to $2000, Munz calls.

Flop is {K-Clubs}

Check check

Turn is {8-Hearts}

Check Check

River is {5-Diamonds}

Munz Checks and Slade bets $2000.

Now, Munz is thinking for about...30 seconds, when Theo Jorgenson who is in seat 2 calls time..... he isn't even in the hand! The tournament director says no.

Munz now does wait for a long time and eventually the tournament director calls a 1 minute clock. Slade at this point is putting on a bit of Hollywood, shaking his hands nervously and smiling at Munz.

Theo Jorgenson is now telling Munz to hurry up, Munz is telling him to be quiet. With seconds to go Munz calls and shows {Q-Clubs}
