Ian now has Lynne's wedding ring on a chain around his neck

Before he looks at his cards every hand, he reaches to touch the chain and kisses the wedding ring


I only knew the couple a little bit at Tour Events, and I don't want to be overly sentimental, not something you'd normally associated with the hard nosed world of poker but this is one of the most emotional things I've seen at the poker table, from a low buy in sort of guy from a recreational poker background

Of course the other players don't know the back story, why should they..but I for one am struggling to keep it together here.

Grant has a sandwich in his pocket which he kisses every hand.

FTW!

I would be in bits watching that tighty - very emotional!!!

Lynne will be looking down cheering Ian on big time

[SolarCarro]

I had a long chat with Ian last night

He has recently turned down a free trip to Vegas as that was his and Lynne's place and he would have too much time on his own with memories

and to tug those heart strings more......

Ian is getting a puppy!!!
