Marcus Stein walked over from another table to ask WPT Champions Club member Frank Stepuchin (pictured) if he had anything to eat, and Stepuchin gave him a chicken wing. (It wasn’t a real wing, but made of plastic.)
A hand or two later, Stepuchin got it all in with against Andrew Watson’s and he failed to catch up.
Stepuchin was eliminated from the tournament, and this is how superstitions are born.
Andrew Watson – 395,000 (132 bb)
Frank Stepuchin – Eliminated
