Pod People

It is not a coincidence that most of the biggest tournaments in the sport of poker are also in some of the most interesting and exciting places on the planet. For some reason that can only be described as evil poker is often played in close proximity to dancing, buffets, and playful members of the opposite sex. This is not a big problem if you are engaging in a tournament that only lasts for four or five hours, but this is of great concern to somebody who is flirting with a chip lead on day one of a long tourney.
