Feel the Love

The prize for today's Most Amiable Exit goes to (American, judging by the accent) Chris Peddigrew, who with heartwarming earnestness said, "Best of luck to all of you," before saying how much of a pleasure it was playing with his table and then he stood up. It looked from the cards strewn on the board that he'd also been busted by {7-?} {4-?}, but this didn't seem to faze him at all. Then, he and his left hand side neighbour spontaneously hugged and he vanished into the rail.
