Very Slow Goings

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

The Main Event has now hit the snail pace of speeds.

With only a handful of big denomination (25,000) chips in play, players are choosing to bet with their 1,000 and 5,000-denomination chips and consequently there is extra time being wasted in making bets, calling bets and then stacking up chips.

Adding to this, big pots are at a loss like water in a desert as getting to showdown is a rarity. The usual play sees a single preflop raise collecting the blinds and antes, but those times we do see a flop it usually is a preflop raise and a call, a few checks and then a single river bet to win the pot.

It's not the most exciting time in the Main Event but we expect it to pick up soon.
