We were scratching our heads over the last-minute entries into this flight. During the break, the entry count increased by eight and we were wondering who would register for Flight E with Flight F starting in a few minutes.
Those 8 players sat down with 25,000 chips, giving them only 12.5 big blinds to work with. My question was answered by none other than Tom Dobrilovic, who sat down to his fresh stack on table 14, two seats to the right of Johannes Mueller’s big stack.
“Why?” was the question and Tom responded that he didn’t want to be here playing until 2:30am (when Flight F will wrap up) after playing all day. He’s got his work cut out for him if he’s going to get chips in a bag in Flight E.
