Also in Orange...

While this $10,000 Stud World Championship grinds inexorably on towards its final eight players (we're about to collapse to five tables now), there's another tournament going on a few tables away. The $1,000 "Stimulus Special" started last Friday, attracting 6,000-odd players. Today was supposed to be "Final Table Day", but because there were so many players they had to suspend play last night with 50 remaining.

Those 50 came back today and have played down to 12 left. They're also in Amazon Orange, with a huge crush of railbirds pressing around the last two tables, whooping and hollering at every all in. It's a surprising amount of pandemonium. No word on whether that tournament will go all the way tonight (unlikely) or adjourn for the evening once they reach the final 9.

You can follow all the coverage of that tournament by opening another tab and selecting Event 4 from the Event drop-down box on the right side of the screen.
