Scheer Lunacy

Kurt Scheer is clearly having a great time over on Table 62. However, it's hard to tell whether or not his table mates are enjoying his company. Scheer, a jovial heavyset good ole southern boy, is sitting between two black men, Jean Gaspard and Steven McKoy. Since the start of the day, Scheer has been calling McKoy "Spike Lee", perhaps in reference to his ball cap and black plastic-framed glasses, a la Spike Lee. In a new turn though, Scheer has started referring to Gaspard as "Prince", though we can't quite see the connection.

Neither man seems to mind the table chatter from Scheer, though they may simply be humoring their now-big-stacked opponent.

Scheer can often be found wandering around his table, even while he is in a hand, often exchanging fist bumps and high fives with his pals. He has broken into loud outbursts on several occasions, and it seems his temperament may be finally wearing on his competitors. Though he hasn't yet received an official warning, Scheer has gotten a few lectures from Tournament Director Steve Frezer about walking away from the table, and regarding his boisterous taunting of his opponents. The last talk-to was followed by a handshake and a big hug from Scheer.

Scheer's most recent complaint is that he's been waiting more than an hour for a cocktail.
