Before play started today, Mike Sexton mentioned that he thought today's final table was the first in history with four players who had each won a million dollars in a single poker tournament. The four were Andy Bloch, Nenad Medic, Kathy Liebert, and Mike Sexton himself. The four players left in today's event are...Andy Bloch, Nenad Medic, Kathy Liebert, and Mike Sexton. The four are also clustered in seats on the left side of the table.

We're not sure if any of this means anything (actually we're pretty sure that is doesn't) but when Mike Sexton takes time to point something out it tends to stick in your mind.
