Paging Alec Torelli

[user66118]

Alec Torelli is missing in action so far. His opponent, Jamin Stokes, seems content to raise each deal and chip away at his stack.

Justin Bonomo is on the case though. He's just made a call to Torelli telling him to hurry up and take his seat.

And just as we speak, the man himself has entered the room, and the match is now going as planned.
