Reversal of Fortune

When we passed by Al "Sugar Bear" Barbieri a few hours before dinner (over in the Brasilia Room), he had chipped up to about 60,000 chips. Al's got about half of those chips now, and he looks a bit worse for the wear. He's slumping in his seat, putting his head down into the crook of his arm and grabbing his hair. Sometimes, a day of playing no-limit hold'em will do that to a person.
