The downstairs bit of the casino has a number of large bins in it, filled with small, shiny sachets of something. Sensing free stuff, I picked up a sachet, to discover that it was a slightly disappointing "Refreshing Towelett" apparently masquerading as a condom, or something. I guess they"re there to dissuade you from leaving the casino to shower. Most odd.

Hand from table Bansi:
Bruno Fitoussi raises in early position to 900 (blinds are now 150/300). Michael Martin (now pretty short stacked with just 4 chips - 11,00 - you work it out) flat calls. Then Praz in the small blind re-raises to 4,200 - enough to say, "I intend to commit your stacks" to both of his potential opponents, assuming the big blind wasn"t interested, which he wasn"t. Bruno then shoves resignedly for about 6k or so, Michael gets out of the way and we have a showdown...
Praz: :as: qd
Bruno: ac qc
Flop: 4c 5c 6h Everyone holds their breath...
Turn: 4h
River: jh
Chop chop.

I can totally outweird that towelett thing by the way...
While I was watching Jan Sjavik win and then lose back a few thousand on his table, I got shoved to one side accidentally by what at first glance appeared to be a man dressed as a knight (i.e. in armor). But no, it was a man wearing two large metal bins strapped to his waist, wearing a chainmail glove on one hand. Into this hand he was placing raw oysters in shell and prising them open with a knife, offering them to the crowd complete with small rack of bottles of sauce attached to a sort of breastplate, and then throwing the empty shells into the other bin. Candy girls I have seen before, oyster men...this is my first time. Dana is getting you a wonderful wonderful picture.
