Heavy Storm in Las Vegas Leads to Rain Delay at World Series of Poker
Some professional athletes, such as baseball players, expect to occasionally sit through a rain delay at work.
Rain delays probably never even crossed the minds of poker players—because poker events are held indoors.
Well, recent events show that every athlete needs to be prepared to deal with Mother Nature.

On Monday night, the 2015 World Series of Poker Main Event was halted when a heavy storm in Las Vegas led to water leaking into the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino.
The World Series of Poker subsequently had to issue a rain-delay notice:
"With the heavy storm outside, water has leaked into a corner of the Brasilia Ballroom where playing tables were located. As a result, 23 tables are being relocated after dinner to the Amazon Room.
If you're seated in Brasilia at tables 1-19, 24, 31, 38, or 39, your table will be in Amazon after dinner. These rerouted tables are located near the center of the room where the orange and purple sections meet on the left hand side of room once you enter.
All other tables are unaffected and players should return to the seat they were in immediately preceding the dinner break.
Play will resume at the end of the dinner break as scheduled (approximately 8:18 p.m.).
"
That's probably something the tournament organizers never expected to have to write.
