Searching for Action

Action has really ground down over the course of the last twenty or thirty minutes. Few pots are being contested in any meaningful way. It's either raise-it-and-take-it, or raise-it-and-take-it-with-a-continuation-bet. Every once in a while, there's a raise and re-raise preflop, but that's been enough to kill all further action.

Oddly, the same thing happened in this event last year. It felt like a race to get to the six-handed final table, but once the players arrived they shut down almost all forms of action.
