We reported earlier today that the silence in the Amazon room is just plain eerie, and it continues even into the start of level 2. Players are being very, very silent and the only real sound heard is the shuffle of chips in between fingers.
Proof of silence? In a field where most players sport hats and sunglasses and over-sized headphones, looking out into the crowd only a small handful of headphones can be seen. They're simply not as needed today.
