If you listen, you'll hear me get tongue tied all the time. Never to the point where I can't go on, but I trip over my words constantly - like a Mom trips over the wires to an NES Advantage.
It's a little harder when we're doing the links for the EPT TV shows. Generally the room is full of dealers and tournament staff, who all have to be quiet while we record the link. It's very awkward. When we're done, they usually give us a sarcastic round of applause.
In London, we did it four or five times, for technical reasons, and on the sixth take, I fucked it up. I did it again on the seventh take, and I went into a cold sweat. Absolute panic mode. I wanted to walk off the stage. I got through the next time without screwing it up, but my boss said "Um, are you ok?" Everyone laughed and that made me feel better. I got it on the next one, luckily, because if not, I probably would have peed.
