Level 9
: 300/600, 75 ante
While making our rounds around the room for the better part of 11 hours we noticed something was just a bit off. We finally figured out what was bothering us and it's the inordinate amount of left-handed dealers on staff here.
This stop, unlike most on the Circuit, is ran by the in-house staff. We're used to seeing the same faces on the crew from stop to stop but here it's all locals.
Studies have shown that about 10-15% of the population is left-handed but their is long held stigma in the poker world concerning left-handed dealers.
For the most part, viewers will very rarely see a televised poker event that has left-handed dealers on a feature table. In years past the WSOP never allowed left-handed dealers on any TV table.
We mentioned this to a floor supervisor and she simply responded, "It's a Kentucky/Indiana thing."
Kurt Jewell has also been eliminated from the tournament. He got the last of his short stack in preflop holding pocket aces. He was called by a player holding pocket eights and his opponent caught an eight on the flop.
He tapped the table, said "Good game," and immediately left the poker room. There's a good chance he headed straight for Legends.

Cord Garcia just stopped by our table to let us know he was eliminated. His final hand held 
and ran into pocket tens. He never caught up and bricked for the whole series.
He's still in high spirits though after a successful stop in Bossier City.
