Saab Chattering Up a Storm

David Saab is relishing his role as social chair at Table 12. He has been a non-stop chatterbox, even as opponents around him are down to the felt. Christian Wolf moved all in as a short-stack and was called by Jamess Suen. Wolf showed {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} against Suen's {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs}.

"Oh, a race!" exclaimed Saab. "You'll win. Snowmen are lucky. Eights are very lucky in Asia." Saab maintained his enthusiasm through a flop of {7-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}, but that was unable to save Wolf as the turn {10-Hearts} and river {A-Spades} sent him packing.

"Ah, unlucky," said Saab with a shake of his head. Then he started laughing at one of his own jokes.

"What'd I tell you?" asked Randy Propson from the other end of the table. "First guy's knocked out and you're laughing."

"It's true," replied Saab. "My heart is stone."

Propson chuckled. "What an ***hole."
