I know one guy who cares about him... remember Sousa...

"You're the only one I was worried about Eskimo."

I'd rather have a seizure than play Razz.

Imagine if he actually did die. How would that reflect on the WSOP and Harrah's?

"Player down, table 163" is how this would be handled in Dallas.

allegedly trained as EMTs, act ineptly to help.

Did he die? Did they give him a cigarette? How were they inept? According to Dan Druff Eskimo is already going to sue them for FORCING him to play in the heat of a tent. A week later and his heart is still bad. How surprising!

Where is the heavy hitter when you need him?

If he died and he was in the money his estate would get his winnings. Outside of that, I imagine a press release, several moments of silence and that would be all.

Well, until the paternity tests come back of course. Then all hell will break loose.

www.wickedchopspoker.com reports that Eskimo Clark, playing in the Razz tournament today, is having seizures again as Harrah's crack security guards, allegedly trained as EMTs, act ineptly to help. He's still in the tournament, but appears to have had another episode in the past few minutes, prompting the floor to start the dinner break early.

If he can't play he can't play.
They should force him to leave the table and get medical attention for him while the tournament continues.

Don't think they stopped it for too long for JJ Liu on the WPT.
If he, or anyone else, collapsed and had to be taken to the hospital they wouldn't just stop the tournament for them I wouldn't think. Their chips would be blinded off.

Doesn't seem like stopping for the dinner-break early just for one player is very appropriate imo.
Roughly the equivilent of Lebron twisting his ankle with 3 minutes left in 2nd quarter and the officials deciding, "Well, we need to do halftime early."

There's a difference between having a heart attack and twisting your ankle. If officials in an NBA game thought that a players was in life-threatening danger, they would absolutely suspend the game, probably until the next day.

I was told by a decent source that he has diabetes and doesn't take care of himself at all and that's what is prob causing all of this.

He has nothing on vinny vinh he is the most annoying person on earth and when I was talking to siedel at my table about how someone needs to shut him up he chimed in don't worry looks like god's already doing that. He looked so bad siedel didn't even know it was vinny he looks so down on life.
