Five Shots of 1942
With the money bubble having officially busted, there was excitement in the room as mini celebrations broke out at tables across the floor.
Early Facebook investor and avid poker enthusiast Chamath Palihapitiya was spearheading one such celebration as he flagged down a waitress, saying "Five shots of 1942 Tequila, please."
The waitress, clearly not aware of who she was speaking to, said, "Are you a Seven Star Player?" to which Palihapitiya responded by saying, "No, but I'm a seven star person." before flashing a wry smile her way.
The table laughed, Palihapitiya smiled even bigger, and the waitress was sold.
10 minutes later, the shots showed up as the electric energy in the room continued.
There really is nothing like the World Series of Poker.
