I read it with some delight. Interesting. My only experience here in Minnesota is not like that at all. We have observers at the final tables in our tourneys, but no vultures waiting for handouts. I don't mind players watching, but yeah, looking for the winner to hit him up would be a pain in the ass.


No one EVER gets a handout from me...and I don't want anyone staking me either. I want ALL the benefits of winning.
