Bubble Boy Baker Announcing Final Table

[user46298]

As play kicked off today, a man with a microphone in a tuxedo said to me, "Now I feel a bit sad." I asked him why, and discovered that the announcer for the final table's major action is none other than Philip Baker, ninth-place finisher in this very event! I had failed to recognize the popular player in his penguin suit, but there he is -- talking through the all-ins of the players he was just hours ago seated at the table alongside.
