Tournament Update

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

It has been announced that if this event doesn't reach the final table by 10:00 pm PDT (four hours from now), that play will continue tonight until the final table, and then stop. The final table would then be played tomorrow (Friday).

If the final table is reached before 10:00 pm PDT, then play will continue until a bracelet is awarded.

The situation is complicated a bit by the fact that the dinner break is scheduled for 9:00 pm. So if they haven't reached the final table by the dinner break (three hours from now), then this will become a three-day event, with the final table starting tomorrow (Friday).

It seems unlikely that this field will shrink in time to fit at one table by the dinner break, so the safe money is on a Friday final table. Stay tuned for further updates.
