Play Slows Down a Bit

As we approach the nine-table mark, play has slowed down a bit. There is still considerable action, however most players are taking all the time they need to make decisions.

Players are becoming very deliberate and calculated in their actions, being careful not to give anything away.

As is the norm in late stage tournament poker, a majority of pots are being won with a late-position raise or reraise.
