It is difficult to sum up in words just how crazy the action has been over the last two hours, and especially the last level to register, but right now there is silence in the tournament area. That's mainly due to the fact that the players have been sent into the first 10-minute break and the registration will close when the cards get back in the air.
Right now there are 93 entries according to the screens!!!
