Vinny Vinh on drugs? Eskimo Clark on Wings?

Katja Thater became first woman since Annie Duke (in 2004) to win WSOP Bracelet. She won the $1500 Razz event in the WSOP. At the final table, Paul "Eskimo" Clark was said to have had a "mini" stroke.

He refused to leave the Rio after collapsing and getting treatment by paramedics. He instead self medicated himself with some smokes and some wings.

wings for eskimo

Smokes

Paul Clark was nicknamed "Eskimo" because he looks like Alask Airlines logo of an Eskimo. He actually used to be a medic himself and also served in the Vietnam War.

He was also chip leader before all the happened to him at the final table. Stu Ungar missed a final table do to a drug overdose. Also this year in the WSOP, Vinny Vinh missed a whole day and was blinded out. He was 2nd in chips and didn't show up the next day. His backer said he knew where he was and had done this before. Rumors are spreading that he has a drug addiction.

Lets hope that was truly not Eskimo Clark's "Final" table.....
