And hopefully the ability to stay awake.

Two hours in and the field has shrunk from 1380 to 1098.

And to think we complain about the finishing times of our deepstack online series.

5,000 starting stacks, 30 mins levels.

Blinds get to 5k/10k at around 5am.

Am I just being too sensible or does that seem a bit mad ?


Good luck !!

That is well deserved then.  Is that the longest online event ever ?

I"ll ask the question and I"m sure one of you will have the answer.  ;D

Most big events like that are split over several days.  It would have made sense for this one as well.

Not longest. Not sure if it was longest but WCOOP Main Event on Stars last year lasted over 22 hours I think.
