Some Players Are More Seriously Focused Than Others

Richard 'Quiet Lion' Brodie was talking with a member of the media when he was asked how many chips he had. Without hesitation, and without so much as shifting his eyes, the player to Brodie's left said, "About 36 or 37 [thousand]." Brodie looked at him as if to say, "You're paying *way* too much attention."

Brodie counted out his stack, and sure enough, it was about 36,000.
