Huge Event . . . But the Room is Very Quiet

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Usually the sound of chips and chattering fills the room, but for some reason it is very calm and quiet so far. I have heard only one "seat open" called out. This may be the calm before the storm. We will see.

Must Be a Friday

Or a Saturday, because the field is huge. We have almost 80 tables out in the Poker Pavilion, and maybe more than that in here. Tables are ten-handed, so we could easily get north of 1,500 participants.

T.J. Cloutier seems to be enjoying himself at his table. There are smiles all around and he's telling poker stories. I'm sure everyone at his table will be happy to go home and share this moment in time with family and friends.
