Level 29: 40,000/80,000 (80,000)
Entries: 64/5,799
The final 64 players are back from their dinner break and are effectively 40 big blinds deep on average. Of course, there are some short stacks still in play despite the deep action.
The tournament director reminded players as they were coming back that play will end the sooner of the end of Level 31 with blinds at 60,000/120,000 (120,000) or when the action is down to just 24 players. This authors bet is that it will last the three more blind levels and the players will come back on Day 4 with an even deeper structure of 90-minute blind levels until a final table is reached.
