Rounding the Bend
Level 14
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
With only five eliminations standing between the remaining players and the money, play has slowed down considerably during the last few minutes.
We watched a massive 200,000 pot develop between Day 1 chip leader Brian Cavaliere and David Lackey, but when the two showed down, both players held identical two-pair hands for chopped pot.
After playing 11 levels yesterday, and making a deep run at the final table here today, none of the remaining 12 runners wants to fall short of making the money, so we expect the slow pace to continue as the bubble looms.
