Hunker Down

Although several players have already busted in the first few minutes since the restart, today promises to be a long day. The schedule calls for the field of 448 to play all the way down to the final table, anticipated to occur long after midnight. Well-rested players may have a significant edge over their opponents as long as they can manage to hold onto chips.

The dinner break will occur after Level 13 and will be only one hour long. Tournament director Jack Effel suggested to the players that, in light of the anticipated length of play today, remaining players may want to consume "lots of nutrients" at dinner.
