You thought Event #2 was loud?

[user38368]

The crowd is extremely noisy in one corner of the room. We thought it was for Robl, but they seem to be going nuts over every all-in.

It's {A-Diamonds}

That's Unusual

[user38368]

By far the largest and loudest contingent of poker fans in the audience, surprisingly enough, is for Andrew "Good2Cu" Robl. Expect much loudness when something good happens for him.

Friends to a Point

[user38368]

Since a few of these final table players (including Justin Bonomo and David Williams) are already good friends, the mood at the table is light and jovial, like a home game would be. Make no mistake, though - after the "Shuffle Up and Deal" happens, it will be all business.
