Martin Gives Chad Pinky Power

Borgata regular Nancy Martin (Washington Crossing, PA) has a superstition of coloring 9 of her 10 nails one color while the right hand pinky gets a different shade.

"It's for good luck," she says while stacking 110k on break, "I saw it on 'Drop Dead Diva' (Lifetime TV) when they were going on a job interview." After explaining the superstition, Martin was more than happy to share nail polish with an opponent.

"I was at 25 (k) and went up to 80 (k)," says Chad Power (Atlantic City, NJ) whose right pinky nail is now pink.  Unfortunately Power's luck runs out when his pocket aces are cracked, but he's still a believer in pinky power.

"It was working until my aces got tuned up," he says, "but we're doing okay."

Level 13 (1k/2k/300 ante) is underway.
