The Reality of Poker in Macau

One of the few downsides to Macanese poker is that, unlike poker rooms in most of the world, Macau poker rooms allow smoking at the table. That's not the case for today's tournament -- players are prohibited from smoking in the tournament area -- but some smoke is drifting by Vivek Rajkumar's table and he's not happy about it. He flagged down Commissioner Danny McDonagh to complain.

"You can smell smoke?" McDonagh asked. "What would you like me to do about it?" He got on the mic and asked spectators to refrain from smoking on the rail.
