Not So Magnificent Seven

Dieter Dijkstra Illustrates Tension
Dieter Dijkstra Illustrates Tension
As we move into the second half of the level, the players have yet to shift into second gear, many raises, but nobody brave enough to join the party.

The last seven hands have all come to an abrupt end prior to any flop. Darren Woods and Jason Ho both took turns in taking the blinds, whist Patrik Selin and Dieter Dijkstra have resorted to all-ins, the latter pushing after Lee Watts had flat called in front of him.

Maybe it's the effect of the 'lights, camera, action', but play seems a little more stagnant today with nobody willing to make any cavalier moves. In fact, as a popular British sports commentator once said, "“The atmosphere is so tense, if Elvis walked in with a portion of chips, you could hear the vinegar sizzle on them.”
