There are quite a bit of spectators lining up by the PokerNews desk to watch the action tonight. So much so that our reporters are having to dodge in and out of the crowd to get back to the desk.

The poker room here at the Crown is buzzing with spectators, players, and the riffling of chips.

Bring Out the Chocolate

[user38449]

Up in Studio 3, the floor staff has spent the last few minutes adding several oversized brown (T25,000) chips into play, in order to help speed play along.

The brown chips are about two millimeters longer in diameter than the rest of the chips on the table and thus, way more intimidating.
