That's a Wrap... or is it?

Due to the lateness of the hour and the complaints of the remaining players, the floor staff initially decided to suspend play and bag and tag everyone's chips. Play would resume at 1:30 pm later today at the start of Level 20. Unfortunately (from the media's perspective), several players disagreed with that course of action. It was put to a vote as to whether to suspend play or continue, with majority carrying the day.

The first vote came six for suspending, six for continuing. Bear in mind, 20 players remain.

A second vote was taken. That vote came eight for suspending, eight for continuing.

A player then suggested that we play to 18 and take another vote. This course of action was agreeable to a majority, and so we continue.
