Craziest "multitasking" player you've seen live.

I used to play in the 5-10 Omaha at the Taj fairly regularly. There was an older guy (Omaha, go figure) who would sleep at the table. Did not matter what day or what time. He pretty much would fall asleep every time I was there.

So one time I went to Vegas, and played some Omaha at Binions. And to my shock, this guy was at my table. Sleeping.

Howard Burroughs, who is a regular around here, is quite a multitasker. I've been out with him on several occasions where he has simultaneously played in multiple LIVE games for as long as they would let him get away with it. When the staff won't let him get away with actually playing more than one game at a time, I've seen him buy in to a second game, leaving his chips on the first table, play for a while then come back to the first table and repeat as game conditions warrant. Obviously he doesn't pull this when the games have lists or anything.

In addition to the above, Howard will routinely hit a half dozen or more rooms in a single night. When it comes to poker, he's got mad energy and intensity. I haven't heard from him in a couple of months, but I bet he hasn't slowed down.

Oh, yeah, ever since I bought him him an MP3 player, he's also added "listening and bobbing his head" to the list of things he does all at once while playing poker.

Looks like $1575, and yeah, the action's on him. Do most rooms allow you to play online and live at the same time? It seems like there'd be some focus stealing issues.

To be pedantic, wouldn't it be $1578? Those look like three $1 blues on top.

Man, I hope not. Foxwoods wouldn't even let me take a laptop out, but they things a little different from Vegas.

Yes. If I remember he was playing 4 tables of 15/30 online at the same time.

I thought they were green, but I've never been to the Wynn. Looks nice, though.
