Walter Browne.  Absolutely ruthless.

Ruthless ain't the word for it.  The guy was positively scary!  I kept thinking all those gesticulations were gonna get out of control and he'd come whirling out of his chair like the Tasmanian Devil or something...

I was watching him play the last year he played in Reno.  He is on board #4.  His opponent gets up and goes...somewhere.  Walter picks up a pen...starts looking for shadows...starts waving at Sal (one of the demo board guys) to move...then he starts adjusting the tablecloth...Finally gets into his Walter Browne pose.  I thoguht the glare was going to set the tablecloth on fire.
