Legend of the Food Coma


Those poor, lonely @Gates_Poker chips have no player attached, a mere seat card to keep them company.
Why?
Because the Legend of the Post-Dinner-Break Food Coma struck once again.

Legend has it that 15-20 percent of a Main Event field busts out within 20-40  minutes after a dinner break. One can only conclude the reason being that great dinner turned into a lump in the player's stomach, or their head is full of Prime Rib images, and they make a misclick .. and to the rail they go.

Well, here today at Blackhawk, there were 65 players in the field at 7:30pm. One table above was broken a few minutes ago and its players scattered among the other Main Event tables.

While the clock still shows 103 entries, I did a headcount before cards went in the air, and the headcount here as Level 10 ends shows the field is down to 49 and a second table is being broken as this posts - well, a table should be breaking ...

Yep, that's 25 percent of the field gone ... more than normal for Food-Coma-Time

The Legend continues ...

Level - 11
Blinds - 600/1200
Antes - 200
Players Left - 49
