Domo Arigato; Mr Roboto
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
It has been common for the local Japanese dealers to announce the all-in and call, and they often mix English with a Japanese twist by adding a few characters to the end of it. One other common version is the word "arigato" which translates to thank you when a player has been eliminated, alerting the floor staff to pick up the seat card.
One such occurrence just happened over on table 408 when Morikawa prevailed with A♥Q♠ versus A♦10♠ in a preflop all-in. The kicker paired on the K♥6♣4♥Q♣2♦ board to send another player out of the door with said "arigato".
As far as the title of this entry is concerned, that belongs to an old school song from the 1990s by Wamdue Project, with the music title based on the anime series Ghost in the Shell.
