I only caught the last few minutes and I'm new to WPT (just found out I get the Travel Channel), so I have a question:

What were those rectangular things they had stacked up next to their chips?

Those were plaques, worth 10k Euros. I think casinos in Europe use those instead of regular chips for amounts that high to prevent theft, or some sort of reason like that.

The first time I saw this episode, I loved this guy. The next time, I found him amusing.

Last night, I found myself pulling against him, even though I already knew which hands he'd hit.

Hmmm. Plaques, huh?

Is Crete the island that Londo blew up in order to kill the Shadows on Centauri Prime in "Babylon 5"?

Boy, that Mr. Morden sure was steamed at that...
