An Eerie Silence

It's so eerily quiet in here at the moment you could hear a doormouse release wind or a borrower scurrying across the stage. Maybe it's because the players are in the middle of a hand, but even so, it's generally been very hush hush today with 'focus' the key word.

In this sense, it makes me wonder if the atmosphere had been different if Gus Hansen had crept into the final 9. Obviously, there would be a moshpit of sreaming fans in the audience, led by Pauly, but there would possibly be a little more banter at the table which is currently lacking.

I suppose when you have learnt your trade online like many of today's finalist have, then trash talk or a simple chin-wag with your next door neighbour isn't something you're accustomed to.
