A guy who had no use of his arms played in the World Series of Poker

[Random Variable]

He manipulated his cards and his chip stack by using his bare feet. It was really quite amazing. I don't know how far he got in the WSOP main event, but he did survive his first day.

wow, that's cool. i'd love to see a video of him playing.

 

[LS20]

you mean people without 2 full limbs can pl;ay cards, too?

 

[IronWing]

Nothing up his sleeve!

 

[Steve]

So was his five cards called a hand?

 

[EvilYoda]

He has arms...they're just not usable.

I caught the episode where Phil Helmuth was out in a few hands. That was one of the best parts of a WSOP episode I've ever seen. :laugh:

 

[jspeicher]

he only survived because everyone else at the table was disgusted...

I think it's just an act he puts on for the camera.

I assume we're talking about the same guy...in which case...it seemed like he had one arm which was really thin and was just placed across his lap. Name was Rockwell.

So a 6 handed table is really only 5?
