Things slow down then the blinds speed up

The last little segment of play after Barbero's {8-Clubs} {4-Spades} suckout has seen the tournament slow right down but just when it was needed the blinds have cranked up. The jump from 12,000/24,000/a2,000 to 15,000/30,000/a3,000 should really help to force those shorter stacks into action.
