Very Little of Note Is Happening

The breaktime coffees and/or Red Bulls and strange blue sodas have not done the job we hoped they would -- if anything, play has tightened up more. Perhaps it's the late hour, perhaps it's the thought of the big money approaching, but players have on the whole been reticent to stick their chips in the middle where the rest of us know they belong.

Barely a handful of players have managed to bust themselves out during this session, and all hope of making final table tonight is gently evaporating into the air-conditioned atmosphere of the Amazon Room.
