Limit Hold'em at Noon

We can see the finish line in the horizon, as only 11 events remain after the start of today's $2,000 Limit Hold'em extravaganza. Check back at Noon for all the action.

Players Taking Their Seats

Announcements are being made. There are some seat changes and there is going to be a re-draw. Although they are saying we will start on time, seems unlikely since it's time to start now.
