- Allen Cunningham
- RT @Andy_Bloch: I don't like triple chips." Hear, hear! And I liked pretending my 187k was worth just that (minus tournament implications)
- Andy Bloch
- I don't like triple chips. Players play better because limits seem higher & it wastes time early. Plus there was a beauty to the old way
- Daniel Negreanu
- Kinda odd but I'm approaching this event thinking I'll never use my 150k starting stack. Just play with the profit all the way to the end.
