Camel Gets the Hump

Not because he's lost a big pot or anything -- but Keith "Camel" Hawkins, newly moved to the upstairs feature table, has fallen foul of the TV crew.

As is common among poker players, he was perched on two chairs, stacked one on top of the other, but this was apparently preventing one of the cameras from seeing the relatively diminutive figures of Men Nguyen and Arnaud Mattern across the table.

"But my back and neck were hurting," Camel was complaining to the director. Nevertheless, he eventually gave in and now has just one chair like everyone else.
