Flushes and Cold Decks

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

We're almost an hour and a half into today's event and thus far, little action has been seen. We've only seen ten flops out of 35 hands played. We've had three eliminations already, two of which were to nut flushes.

Are players playing extra tight today, or did someone put the deck in an ice box before the tournament started?
