The Doors Open

With strains of Wild Cherry's "Play That Funky Music" floating through the room, the doors to the Amazon Room open and players begin to take their seats for today's event. As has been the case with several other events already this year, there are not enough tables in the Blue and Orange sections of the Amazon Room to accomodate the size of the field. The Tropical Room across the hallway is being used as an overflow room, as is the area outside of Buzio's seafood restaurant down the hall and the Rio poker room (a solid 10-minute walk from the Amazon Room).
