The Railkids

What can you find in the Salle des Etoiles that can't normally found in a poker room?

Children.

That's right. Make way for the Railkids.

Since we're not technically in a casino environment, there is no age restriction as to who can pass through the tournament area here at the Monte Carlo Bay Resort. Wives and girlfriends with baby carriers and strollers have been in and out of the tournament room all day, sweating their loved ones. Kids of all ages have been spotted on the rail, from Patrik Antonius' microphone-eating infant, Mila, to two French boys who look to be about 8 years old apiece, engaged in a heated video game battle on their PSPs right behind Theo Jorgensen's table. Hey, in ten years those two could be 12-tabling SNGs!
