Layne "That May or May Not Have Been Me in That Movie" Flack
Picking up a debate we first overheard back during Event No. 34, the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha w/rebuys event won by Layne Flack, we just caught Flack, Antonio Esfandiari, and the rest of their table discussing the best strategy for fighting bears.

"Would you rather take a bat or a knife to kill a bear?" asked Flack.

"I'd take a bat," answered a player from across the table. "'Cos a knife is too short."

"Life is too short," said Flack, deliberately mishearing him. "And it'll be a lot shorter if you use a bat. I'd rather use a gun."

"I'd rather be back in my room watching pay per view," quipped another.

"Yeah, you could watch Layne's movie," said another. "Layne Does Dallas." The table burst into laughter.
