Nível 15 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The tournament clock is currently showing that there are 960 players left. This number is not entirely correct as players keep busting at a fast pace. All spectators have been asked to leave the Amazon room for now as there's the expectation that there will be a lot of commotion around the bubble once it comes and after it bursts.
