Random WSOP Observation #34: Frozen In Time

Published by: Ed Sevillano

Posted In: WSOP Blog, Tournament Trail

Allen Cunningham Playing in the Main Event can be a dream come true. Players dream about coming to Vegas and winning millions of dollars. For some, busting out can be too much to handle.

A few minutes ago a player was facing an all in bet on a three-diamond board. He thought for several minutes before calling and was shown the nuts.

At this point, most people would throw their cards in the muck and get on with their lives. Not this guy; he sat frozen in time.

The dealer wasn't sure what to do. He slowly reached out and pulled the cards out from under the man's hand and tapped them on the table, making it obvious that the hand was about to be killed. Still the man didn't move. <

The dealer shuffled up and dealt a hand and he still didn't so much as blink. He just stared blankly into space.

The hand completed and the dealer began to shuffle and deal a second hand. The table just went on as if the frozen man wasn't even there.

After the conclusion of this hand, the dealer went to shuffle hand number three since the bust out. He blinked, shook his head and then stood up.

"Well, thank you everybody. Good luck," he said before he drifted away.
