: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Play has ground to halt as announcements have been made to dealers to stop dealing hands in preparation for hand-for-hand play. All dealers are now standing by their tables as they await their next instructions.
The big board is currently showing 650 players left — two off the cash — but an official estimation is no doubt being made to see exactly where the tourney stands at the moment. The top 648 finishers make the money.
