Poker Widows
It's a phenomenon we've never understood but one we've witnessed time and again. A male poker player's female companion will sit quietly in a chair directly behind him, bored to tears as he plays poker. And we'll admit it -- watching poker is not always exciting stuff. We have the luxury of moving from table to table and following the action, but a poker widow doesn't. She just sits there and reads a book or files her nails or does nothing at all but look bored.
There is one notable exception. Ray Rahme is often shadowed by his lovely wife Teresa. Teresa Rahme is not the typical poker widow. She stays quite alert while Ray plays his poker and seems to really be pulling for him on every hand.
UPDATE: The player who inspired this post busted just before the end of Level 2, presumably to the relief of his companion.
