Survivng the Night

With an average chipstack of 165,000, and the blinds being at 3,000/6,000, many players have been stranded waiting to catch just the right hand to get all their chips in with.

Many shortstacks exist within the field, with the average player having only thirteen big blinds in front of them. The big stacks haven't been wasting their time, pushing the smaller stacks around first chance they get. We've only had a couple double ups, though not many of the remaining players have been willing to risk getting their chips in the middle just yet.
