Two days ago, we had the big Event 1 restart and that field made it into the money before the first break without the process of hand-for-hand play.

Again today, tournament staff asked dealers to stop all action after their current hand to begin bubble play. They lost one during that hand so the remaining players were in the money without a fuss.

Table 29 was broken to get the field down to the last nine tables and they will continue through this level before the first break of the day.
