Watching Event #54
We're back from dinner break and our 13 remaining players are in their seats around our final two tables. The first hands of Level 23 are being dealt.
The Amazon Room is relatively quiet today, especially now as the Tournament of Champions (over at the feature table on the main stage) is on a break. The lucky 13 who have made it through to this point in Event #54 certainly don't have the name recognition of those in the TOC, but they do have their supporters.
Quite a few are gathered on the rail watching the action on both of our tables, and from their interest one gathers they are presumably friends and family. There's a lot on the line here, with the one emerging as the winner earning a $570,960 payday for his $1,000 investment.
A big moment for all -- for the players and for those supporting them.
