Event 9
Level 16 (1,500/3,000/500)Total Entrants: 195
Players Remaining: 62
Chip Average: 60,000
Players were just sent on their final break before the dinner break and have reached the point of Event 9 that will see the levels to increase to 30 minutes in length, a change that certainly will be appreciated by players as the current chip average is just playing 20 big blinds.
We mentioned earlier that players will look to "survive" through this "turbo" portion of play and only sixty or so have, as we suddenly find ourselves close to the money even though we have only been playing for just under six hours.
While we are close to the money, we don't expect to hit that point until after the dinner break, which will be after Level 18, starting around 6 PM.
