It's so busy here in Casino Barcelona, that not all players are seated right now. There's an alternate list where at least a hundred players are on, and they'll have to wait till seats free up before they can play.
There's also a qualifier to the Main Event going on at the moment on the main casino floor. But those tables weren't to be used for the Main Event in the first place, according to the organization:
the @PokerStarsEPT decided to run a $500 sat right now that has 100 people in it instead of seating the 100 alts waiting @GarryGatesFollow @scott_seiver
@scott_seiver The sat. is being run in the casino on casino-owned tables, never intended to be used as tournament tables. They are on lease to us for exactly four hours, at which time they revert back to cash game tables. Were we to use them as ME tables they wouldn't finish within 4 hours. The sat was always on the sched., so by running in casino, we create more room 4 MEFollow @GarryGates
