Redraw Time

After starting the day with thirty-six players, we are now down to the last twenty-seven. A redraw is taking place, and players have been instructed that this is not a break, though it will take a few minutes to get it all organized.

As stated, we are playing down to the final table today, so just eighteen more eliminations until we call it a day. How long will it take? Some are estimating it to be done by dinner, others are calling for 5am. All we know for sure is that it took two and a half hours to eliminate nine players.
