It seems that we have an internet celebrity among the remaining field today.
Eric Doerr, a tournament grinder on the WSOP circuit is currently sitting with a stack of roughly 90,000. He also recently scored a 7th place finish here in Chester for the Pot Limit Hold'em/Omaha event. But none of those accomplishments are what the table is currently talking about. Rather, the table's laughter is currently filling the room, as Doerr shared that he happens to be the star of a viral internet video.
Doerr was the victim of an office prank a few years back and it seems the video has gained some notoriety, as the YouTube account has over 260,000 hits. We won't spoil anything, as the video is too priceless; but let's just say we're hoping that no one in the room gets any ideas regarding the dealer's swivel chairs....
