Prop Bets and Table Talk
![[user75032]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
As you might expect at the start of this tournament, players are making lots of bets with each other and talking about anything but the very small limit poker being played. Lots of last-longer bets are being made; Abe Mosseri and Mike Matusow entered one, and it looked like Tom Dwan andHasan Habib were negotiating another.
Speaking of Matusow, he's been loudly telling Justin Smith and Barry Greenstein, seated at a nearby table, what his opinion is of the $1,500 Stud final table participants. Matusow was overheard to say he would pick any three people in the world at random to stake against any of Sorel Mizzi, Richard Ashby and Dan Heimiller in stud.
The field is still filling with late arrivals. There are three empty tables that have dealers sitting at them; we expect them all to be occupied by players before the end of late registration.
