Play Resumes
Level 5
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
During the break and some of the previous level, the Tournament Directors and players discussed altering the parameters of the tournament.
Consequently, it was decided that play for the day would end after 30 minutes of this level so that people had the option to go to the Australian Open Men's Final.
As a result, there will be no re-draw tonight, and time extension chips will be not reset. Play will resume at 1:10 p.m. (AEDT) and a re-draw will occur at the end of level six, while registration will close at the end of level seven.
The cards are now back in the air with 30 minutes remaining in the day.
