British mixed-game specialist Adam Owen is here in the field today, but you might have to do a double take if you recognize him. That's because Owen took a trip to the hair salon today, thanks to a prop bet that he recently lost. Here was the breakdown according to Owen himself:
What started out as a prop bet between Owen and a friend quickly turned into a ten-person competition. The stipulations were that whoever bagged the least amount of chips at the end of Day 1 of the Main Event would have to dye a streak of color into the middle of their hair. As it turns out, five players finished tied for last place... all with 0 chips. So earlier today, they all headed to the salon, and Owen got a broad stream of red right down the middle of his hair.
Being a good sport about it, Owen said they have all agreed to do this again in the Colossus next year!

When Leah stood up for the dealer, the player then directed his anger at Leah, and a tournament staff had to summon security to escort the gentlemen from the table.
Leah calmly kept adding his new chips to his stack with a wry smile about his face.
