Hand By Hand We Go

Would The Real Deal(er) Please Stand Up.
Would The Real Deal(er) Please Stand Up.

We've got 753 players remaining, and that puts us six eliminations away from the money. As such, Jack Effel has ordered the dealers that they'll be dealing hand-for-hand from here on out. For those of you unfamiliar with this stage of a tournament, hand-for-hand play means that each table will play a single hand, and then the dealer will stand up to signal their table has finished.

Once a hand is done at each of the 84 tables in the room, everyone sits back down and we do it all over again. This format was put into place to keep the players from stalling and deliberating for twenty minutes over every decision.
