The player here in the first level has been extremely slow, but that was expected. With each player getting 9,000 chips to start and the blinds at 25/50, everyone is deep. This is a tournament, though, and things will be changing very soon when the blinds are raised.
Right now, two players have been eliminated from the field in unknown action.
Looking up at the tournament clock, the number of registered players reads 127. That's less than half of the amount that played last year and a far cry from when we said this event would see the 2012 World Series of Poker Europe event field rise. Late registration will remain open for a bit and we'll see just how big this field gets, so stay tuned.
