Last Level Tightening

It's not as if this was a wildly aggressive field at the outset, but the last few minutes of play in today's Seniors event have been very tight.

Short stacks are trying their best not to push without anything resembling live cards while the bigger stacks are sitting tight, trying to avoid giving any unnecessary double ups. With that in mind, most pots are being won with just simple preflop raises from anywhere in position against the blinds.
