Big Stax 1100 (Day 1B): Welcome to the Slow-Down

Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/200)
Total Day 1B Entries: 239
Day 1B Players Remaining: 126

Chip Average: 95,000 (59 big blinds)

Either this blogger is watching all of the wrong hands at all of the wrong tables, or action in the room has devolved into a contest of seeing who can tank the longest before ultimately folding.

Oh, there's plenty of pre-flop action. It's usually not until someone 4-bets that the others remaining in the hand begin to ponder the meaning of life. But there haven't been many showdowns lately.

We know for sure that we missed one huge hand, though.

Mike Linster recently had to fire another bullet, lamenting to several people that his pocket aces were cracked by pocket kings in a 300k pot. He's now seating at Table 45 with Michael Marder and Kane Kalas, so that should be a fun table to watch for the rest of the night.
