Going Bananas

It's all gone bananas here. Noticing that her opponent has a small banana ornament as a card protector, Winamax's Almira Skripchenko pulls out a real banana from her bag and places it on her own cards.

I don't know why, but along with Johnny Chan's moldy orange, the World Series of Poker seems to act as a magnet for a host of fruit based card protectors.
