Interesting evening at the Rio tonight…
\”Miami\” John Cernuto was spotted at the Rio today after being released from the hospital just days ago. When I finally caught up to him tonight, he said that he\’s been playing cash games today but is not in tournament shape yet. He still holds out hope that he\’ll feel well enough to play the main event, but he\’s not sure.
As a side note, John appreciated the concern for his health in our Pokerati posts. Our message to John? Don\’t collapse anymore, please! The controversy that ensues is interesting but…
In other news, a random walk down the hallway of the Rio found my favorite stalkee Nelly and friends leaving the cash games and being confronted by a group of drunk? people that struck up a conversation with the rap star. Someone challenged someone to a foot race, but after Nelly threw out betting numbers in the $20K range, talks quickly fell apart as Nelly got annoyed with the ridiculousness of the bet. With that, Nelly and his crew left the building through the back door.
