Raymer Fossilized


No Limit Hold'em:
We saw 2004 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Greg Raymer preparing to sign a fossil, which is his custom after being eliminated from a tournament. Gavin Griffin was to be the beneficiary, but told his victim to keep it and pass it along as he'd no doubt lose it, which he said he did to a copy of Barry Greenstein's book, Ace on the River, after having eliminated him in a past tournament.
"I'll set it aside," Raymer explained. "Then, if you win this tournament, I'll give it to you and you'll need to put it in a very expensive case, but you'll have to buy it."
After Raymer exited, Griffin informed us that the champ had shipped for 14,000 from cutoff with and he made the call with
from the small blind. The board ran out
and that was the end of that.
