Anxious for Action

This is the time of night that everyone at the WSOP dreads. Players are exhausted from concentrating all day; media and staff become antsy as the action slows to a crawl. With each bust-out becoming more and more significant, players are much more deliberate in their actions, even as they wish their opponents would play more recklessly.

We have been told that the tournament will play down to the final table no matter how long it takes, with a ten-hour break before play resumes later today.
