No records broken at the Bike

Today was the final of the Bike tournament. Not an embarassment but no dealers getting overtime either. The ME, a $1k buy in with a limit of 350, attracted 119. Looking for a celeb ? Today we had racehorse trainer Patrick Biancone. He smokes, he drinks, he is overweight and he was banned from training horses back east when he was found with snake venom in his barn. Of course the California horse racing board welcomed him with open arms to train in L.A. He missed a good card at Hollywood looking for a good card or two at the Bell Garden venue.

The winner was a late arrival Paymon Arjang, who had a friend buy him in .
1) Payman Arjang 40k + Legends seat
