The Peaceful Pavilion
"Hello, hello?"
So called out Joshua Sisak just now here in the cavernous Pavilion room. It's an interesting scene, where we only have about a dozen tables to start out, with the rest of the football field-sized ballroom empty. In fact, they've already begun to remove chairs and the tables will be going soon, too.
It is very quiet here -- in contract to the noise of the Amazon just now -- and Sisak was kidding that his words were echoing. "It doesn't really have a WSOP Main Event feel, does it?" said Brandon Cantu, sitting at Sisak's table. "No, more like a home game," said Sisak.
Those over here who survive the first hour or two will all eventually get moved into the Amazon, where it'll probably no longer seem so much like a home game.
