Players Go on an Unscheduled Break

[user22113]

So many players busted out in the first few hands that the tournament staff had a difficult time catching up with the eliminations. Every player who busted out on Day 2 made the money. The TD sent everyone on a fifteen minute break so the staff can process the bustouts.
