The Calm Before the Storm

Not unlike on days 1a and 1b, it is eerily quiet here in the Amazon Room today. These players, most of whom are likely playing in their first Main Event, are all very focused on the task at hand.

There is very little chit-chat. The only sound that can be heard is that of 1,000-plus players nervously shuffling chips.
