Level 16:  4,000/8,000 with a 8,000 ante
Players Remaining:  261 of 2,010

With 25 minutes remaining in Level 16, the field has dropped down to 261 players — one table away from the money.

The tournament clock has been paused at 25:00, and the field has been sent on their 90-minute dinner break a little early. Action is scheduled to resume at 7:40 pm.

With 261 players remaining from a field of 2,010, the average chip stack is about 385,000 (48 big blinds). The final 252 players will finish in the money, earning at least $5,650 each.

During the dinner break, each table will be outfitted with an iPad running the 30-second Action Clock by Protection Poker, which will be used for the rest of the tournament.

Each player will receive 10 non-transferable Time Chips that can be used to extend any decision by 30 seconds. These are the only Time Chips they will have until there are three tables remaining (24 players), at which point players will be reset to exactly six Time Chips each.
