Icing

Icing Max Rubin's annual Blackjack Ball was held yesterday. The Ball brings together many of the best gamblers in the world to vote on a Blackjack Hall of Fame inductee and to compete in a knowledge and skills contest. Only a couple hours after winning the SuperContest, Fezzik made it to the BJ Ball's final table. He finished third, but just getting there with that crowd is a heck of an accomplishment. Dude's on a sizzle! BTW, the new HOF member is Darryl Purpose, legendary player and original member of the Ken Uston team (which was actually the Al Francesco team).

can u list the questions? he seriously made it to the final table?

He did, indeed. And he also played well at the final -- accurately counted down a deck, went deep into a memorization sequence, etc. He was actually never eliminated, but sent off the table in a Survivor-type twist added this year when the chip leader chose to go head-to-head with two-time champ and HOF member Richard Munchkin rather than Fezz. An impressive performance. I'll put up some sample questions later.
