Players Start to Move Quickly

The players still left in the shootout had seemed very dreary for the last four hours. No one looked very excited to be here; no one seemed thrilled to be playing poker. Instead, everyone seemed exhausted. One can't blame them, seeing as how some of them have been playing for thirteen hours without a break.

But as soon as the announcement was made about calling it a night at 2 a.m., everyone cheered loudly. Players are thrilled to be done for the day and not to be here all night. Everyone is all smiles, attitudes have completely changed, and everyone seems excited again.
