------------------------------
   * PLAYERS: dennis, mike, george, todd, stu, john
   * SPONSOR: George
   * FEATURED ARTIST:  Kenny G
   * todd wins the first hand of the night again
   * george handily takes away the spread award from stu
   * mike won stacks for the first time; he even offered to split the pot
   with john when they both had 3 stacks left 
   * george was in a pissy mood all night
   * stu made george in a pissy mood by double bumping
   * stu was back to his old tricks: 
      * he called john 'jaejin'; we all reassured him that this is a 
        common mistake
      * he called a no-peek game (7-card stu) and then immediately 
        looked at his cards
      * on a showdown with Todd, Stu calls Aces over 2's and he really 
        had 2's over Aces.  Todd almost had a heart attack
   * todd got the weak-man award by folding on guts when he had a wild card,
   and then the cards that would have been dealt to him were also wild
   * nobody would play any dennis games
