Survivng the Night
Many shortstacks exist within the field, with the average player having only thirteen big blinds in front of them. The big stacks haven't been wasting their time, pushing the smaller stacks around first chance they get. We've only had a couple double ups, though not many of the remaining players have been willing to risk getting their chips in the middle just yet.

A few hands later Andy Bloch raised and Tran called from the cutoff. Block check-called Tran's 6,000 bet after the flop and when the turned Bloch checked again. Tran bet, Bloch check-raised, and Tran laid his hand down. Losing those two pots dropped him down to 157,000.
