Getting It Started

As seems to be the norm here at the Amazon Room, today's players are greeted with the dulcet tones of those cool dudes from the Black Eyed Peas. I haven't spotted the likes of poker veterans Doyle Brunson yet but I'm sure he leapt off his Brunsonmobile to bust a move as soon as the hip hop beat kicked in. And what about the likes of Cloutier, Stupak or maybe even Sklansky, I wonder if they swung those John Travolta hips when the Black Eyed Peas encouraged us to "get it started"?

If anyone is heeding that advice, then it's the tournament director, as he has just announced that we're off and underway.
