Cured, but Still Tasty

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

A fine Iberico cured ham can taste great young, but still taste great, or even better, after years of maturing. The same can be said for Ram Vaswani.

There was no player more feared than the Brit in Seasons 1 and 2, where he went so close to claiming back-to-back EPT titles. He had a game back then that is seen as the “proper” way to play these days, but he doesn’t make use of his skills as regularly as he used to.

That said, he is here today (currently on 27,000) and if he was the cured ham in the middle of sandwich then he has two tasty slices of bread either side. To his left is one of the chip leaders in Dermot Blain (67,000) and to his right is former EPT high-roller champion Tobias Reinkemeier (24,000).

Good luck to any tablemates that try to take a bite out of that sandwich.
