With the departure of Noah Bronstein's vocal rail, some may have thought this three-handed action would be a lot quieter. However, Christopher Vitch is talking just about enough to make up for the slightly quieter rail.
"Just some information for you Chris," says Justin Bonomo, "Three times I've been heads-up and given someone their first bracelet.
"So what you're saying is I should knock out Ian, and get heads-up with you?" replies Vitch, laughing loudly, "That's almost collusion you telling me that!"
