Things Just Seem Brighter With That Guy Around

After nearly two hours of dimly-lighted play, the lights brightened considerably here in the "Orange" section -- the front left quadrant of the Amazon Room. A cheer went up as players suddenly realized they could see the cards, the chips, and each other much more clearly.

The change in the lighting appeared to coincide with entrance of Tournament Director Jack Effel, and some immediately drew a correlation between the two events.

Alas, moments later the lights dimmed again. "Awwww," said the crowd. Effel must've walked out.
