I apologize but I am rotfl.
Varkonyi Faces Helppi at Bottom of Ocean It's Just An Example of "Extreme Poker" InterPoker.com is taking poker to places where people normally don’t play, and it's starting 20 feet underwater at the second annual Caribbean Poker Classic on the Caribbean island of St. Kitts. Today, Juha Helppi and World Series of Poker champion Rob Varkonyi will don state-of-the-art scuba gear and take seats around a table siting at the bottom of the ocean. Players have been warned that during the tournament they may encounter distractions such as currents, tropical fish, and entangling seaweed that may break concentration and lead to tactical errors at the deep-sea table. They’ll be using specially-made weighted chips and waterproof cards. The poker table is also weighted so it doesn’t drift away as the players ponder whether to call or raise. The tournament will last until only one player wins all the chips, or until the competition either inadvertently floats to the surface or runs out of air and is forced to leave the tournament. |
