We're Back (for Five More Levels)
Our remaining 127 players are back in their seats and the first hands of Level 15 are being dealt.
It was just announced that the tourney would play through Level 19 -- i.e., five more one-hour levels -- before concluding tonight.
While most did not react, there were a few groan-like sounds as players mentally calculated how much longer we'd be going tonight. Playing through Level 19 amounts to just a little over 10 levels of play today, though -- just about what the plan for Day 2 had been all along.
