Going and Going and Going and Going

For those of you still following our coverage, we thank you. We know it's been long (13 hours, 30 minutes to be exact), but the players are still trekking along in hopes of making it to the end of the night where only two remain.

As you can see from the updates, the tournament has slowed down greatly. We haven't seen a flop in who knows how long and we're not sure the next time we will. The players themselves look shot and don't really seem to be interested in playing poker anymore. Well, everyone but Joe Cada. Cada's youth seems to be the overhwelming factor as he takes advantage of the older and more tired players still left to do battle.

The old adage is to quit playing when you're too tired to play your A-game, but what happens when you can't quit?
