Noah Schwartz, working with a ton of newfound chips, is chatting liberally with his whole table during and in between hands. Robert Mizrachi stopped by the table recently to check on his fellow Poker Battle Warrior. Schwartz asked him, "What do you got, like 270?" He added with a grin, "I'm coming for ya." He glanced over at the player to his left, who was sitting as still as a statue. "Come on, smile. We're having fun, no?" said Schwartz, drawing a faint smile from his opponent. Everyone is bearing down for a run to the money, but Schwartz may be the happiest man in the room.
Okay, maybe the second happiest.
Scotty Nguyen has been brushing up on his French skills for two solid days now, and he has become marginally prolific at announcing his bet amounts in the local tongue. With more than a few Heinekins in his blood stream, he is having no trouble carrying the conversation at his table, in French or in English. And to further add to the comedy routine, two Spanish-speaking players have been moved to Scotty's table, and he can't help but throw in a phrase in their language every now and then. No matter where you are in the vast tournament room, every couple of minutes a big loud Scotty laugh comes booming over top of the crowd.
