The chip ramp prop bet

[user3511]

Rafi Amit and Gary Jones are organising an interesting looking prop bet. Amit has assembled a makeshift ramp of chips on his table which leads up to the foam padding. He claims he can roll a single chip up the ramp and have it land on the foam. Amit wants $1000 for every time he makes it and Jones gets $480 every time he doesnt.

They havent agreed yet but we'll let you know what transpires

Justin Bonomo Eliminated

[user25067]

The last of Justin Bonomo's chips landed in the ever-growing stack of Jan Sorensen after a stud 8 or better hand and "ZeeJustin" hit the rail looking none too happy.

Chip Ramp Update

[user3511]

Rafi Amit isn't doing so well in his practice for the chip ramp prop bet. He has missed it about 6 times and hit once. They havent agreed a fee yet so maybe Amit is lulling Jones into a false sense of security? The cheeky hustler.

Kirk Morrison Making a Comeback

[user25067]

Kirk Morrison started the day as our chip leader with 55,000 but hasn't had the best day, sliding to 25,000 at one point and going into the last break with 40,000. Things are turning around a bit for Morrison, though-- he found himself on the lucky end of a stud hand, making aces and sixes and besting Eric Dalby's aces and fours to take down the pot. He's up to 57,000 right now and was just spotted ordering cocktails with Mark Vos.

Vos vs. The Floor

[user25067]

The argument between Mark Vos and the floor over his often-unstable chip edifices continues...

Right before the break, the floor asked Vos to place his chips in more manageable stacks so they could be counted. Vos gave the floor his chip count and then proceeded to knock the chip castle down and spread them all over the table before taking off for break.

When play resumed, Vos cleaned up his chip-lake and constructed yet another castle-- and was asked by the floor once again to dismantle it since it was so precarously constructed and could potentially spill into other players' stacks. This time, Vos put his chips into three racks.

Now the floor had to get Vos to take the chips out of the racks. Vos started unloading them one chip at a time and the exasperated floorman told him he had until the end of the next hand to get them all out. As the floorman walked away, Vos flipped him the bird.

"Hey, hey! He gave you the finger!" tattled Max Pescatori.

The floor didn't personally witness the finger gesture and Vos did not incur a penalty. The chips, however, are still in the racks several hands later.
