Maurice Hawkins has been his usual chatty self over on Pavilion #121.
He recently predicted when he was going to bust a player sitting to his right.
"1,000-2,000 blind level is when you are going to leave," Hawkins said. "You think I'm joking but I'm telling the truth."
Hawkins has the rest of his table laughing over his boasting. He currently sits just below the starting stack.
