Maybe he needs a man-purse.

Wandering by Table 238, we spotted David Oppenheim involved in a hand with Chris Amaral. It wasn't a very memorable hand -- Amaral folded on fifth street. What attracted our attention was the pile of what can charitably be described as "crap" that Oppenheim had assembled on the felt in front of himself.

In no particular order:

* a standard-issue iPod;
* a red lighter that reads "KEEP IT SIMPLE" in white block letters (sage advice for any poker player);
* a CardRunners ad (really, David, we think your game's pretty tight as is);
* a pack of mint gum (we couldn't see the brand);
* a men's watch with a ridiculously large face;
* a red cell phone;
* a bottle of Johnny Chan-approved All In Purified Water; and
* somewhere between $5,000 and $10,000 in American greenbacks.

Looking at all of these items, we can only imagine that Oppenheim is stocking up for an earthquake. Or making a bomb.
