Blackout update

Half of Crown Casino went to darkness for 5 minutes.

How does that happen?

Yes we just had a complete blackout as we were about to begin Level Three. No one has ever seen a complete blackout in a casino before, after about four minutes we are back up and cards are flying in the darkened air. We are currently on auxiliary power and its hot outside, HOT HOT HOT.

Recent Bustouts: Bolivia and Gentleman Ben

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Gentleman Ben Roberts ran into quads. Ben Roberts has Q-Q while The Dragon showed K-K. They both flopped a set but the Dragon added more insult to injury when the case King spiked.

Meanwhile, Ed "Bolivia" Moncada, who was one of yesterday's chipleaders, headed to the rail.

There is a debate over what's worse: Being a Canadian or a Kiwi. Something about living too close to the US or Australia.
The betting hand action debate is up again; can you make a bet with two motions of the hand or is that a string bet. Apparently at the Crown its one motion even if you toss twice from the same extended hand.
