OliverT,

I hate most of what you do, but I think the flags/nationalism were a nice touch given the makeup of the final table.

The USA chant was still dickish though.

Hand #113 - Jerry Yang

Hand #113 - Jerry Yang has the button in seat 4, he raises to 2 million, and Tuan Lam calls from the small blind. The flop comes J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Lam bets 3 million, Yang raises to 9 million, and Lam thinks for about two minutes before he folds. Jerry Yang wins the pot, and a few fans in the crowd start weakly cheering "U.S.A.! U.S.A.!"

The chant seems to be more about good-natured fun than anything else, because the foreigners still alive at the final table (representing South Africa, Russia, and Canada) have such strong national support in the crowd. "
