Angell now short, gets moved off table monster onto table Much shorter stacks to balance tables

[AndrewT]

Table stato with no chips on it, comparatively, was broken. Stato has gone onto table monster stacks

Are the tables always broken in a preset order, or is there any leeway for a TD to try and equalize the chips on each table by breaking a particular table (you can see it's years since I played any poker).

Table stato with no chips on it, comparatively, was broken. Stato has gone onto table monster stacks

Are the tables always broken in a preset order, or is there any leeway for a TD to try and equalize the chips on each table by breaking a particular table (you can see it's years since I played any poker).

pre-set order, the system isnt "gamed" at all.

here we have about 35m of the 50m in play on one table at 60-120k soon

so the other 7 (ho yin, bayley, garland, angell etc) are at averages of 2m and the play is much much cagier, some shoves, some raises but nothing too exciting.

the other table with much deeper stacks is seeing flops, multiway pots etc. it also happens that the two most aggro players in the comp, leo and edmund are button to big blind at one end of the table
