We were just locking up. The candles had been put out. The big red lighted heart had gone dark for the night. The water bottles were arranged, the mints properly stacked. Just as we went to turn the live stream off, the doors to the Legends Lounge (we thought they were locked...) flew open. 

And in came the werewolves. Madsen. Selbst. Weisner. PokerOrg's Sammie Gruber nodded slowly as if to say, "You knew it was going to happen. You didn't believe it, but deep down, you knew it."

Those of us who left stole one last glance into the back room of the Lounge. There there be werewolves. We can only hope their desires have been sated by sunrise.

Don't stare too long. If you do, they'll call you a werewolf.

Is the PokerOrg Legends Lounge lucky? We're trying to find out. 

We've spent the day looking at Main Event chip counts and sifting out some of the folks we have seen in our Lounge for the past couple of weeks. 

There are still far too many to list them all, but we know we have a bunch starting Day 2D on Monday. So good luck to these folks and all our members of The Org who have survived so far.

And, hey, make sure we know if you still have chips in the Main! Stop by our front desk and let whoever is at the front know how you're doing. Who knows? The Luck of the Lounge may be a real thing...
