Let’s Make a Deal…Please
Saturday, October 10, 2009 - Gene Bromberg
The four players left in the 2009 Aruba Poker Classic have been discussing a deal for well over a half-hour now. They’re talking about chopping the money along some intricately-negotiated lines and saving about $100,00 to play for. This is perhaps the longest chop-talk I’ve ever seen and it ain’t over yet. And the clock has been running the whole time–if they can’t work it out (or if they do and play for money set aside) the blinds will be going up soon after play resumes. Provide play DOES resume, eventually.
While we wait, a picture of the Radisson’s resident cat (yes, he lives there, has a cat-condo on the premises and everything).
UPDATE: No deal. The players couldn’t agree to terms so after nearly an hour of talk we’re gonna play some cards.
