The 90 minute dinner break takes place after Level 10 is in the books.
With the dinner break looming the Day 1c field is down to 147 or a little more than one-third of the original 428 players. Between 20 to 25 percent of the field is expected to survive until tomorrow to compete with the 38 players (out of 179) to make it from Day 1a and the 60 (out of 294) to make it from Day 1b.
Many of those not playing can be found throughout the day being entertained at the pool. We imagine starting tomorrow the pool will get a bit busier with no more players able to re-enter.
The long-anticipated dinner break has just begun. Play will resume in 90 minutes with blinds at 600/1,200 and an ante of 200.
Also, from 10:00 p.m. until after midnight the Grand Moroccan Party will be taking place at the Social club featuring tasty couscous géant along with "Le Grand Quizz Winamax".
