One of the amateurs in today's field just took a fall, but not in the chip counts. In the middle of all the action, his chair burst from underneath him, causing him to fall backwards to the floor. Embarrassed, the player then made a joke about a back injury, claiming he needed compensation for his accident. Lee Markholt, one table over, then joked back that perhaps more exercise could be the answer. The player then asked for a "steel reinforced chair for his fat ass." The players around shared a laugh, and then the broken chair was replaced.
