Good grief. O_o;

Before I make this post, I just need to point something out: I'm not a fan of playing poker, but I love watching it.

Which brings me to this: The World Series of Poker's Main Event, which started back in July (and took a few weeks off before starting again yesterday) is down to its final 3 players in what was supposed to be the final day of play.

"Supposed to" being the key phrase.

They started at 6 PM Pacific time yesterday...it is currently 1:10 AM Wednesday morning their time.

Not one of them has been knocked out yet.

If this isn't done in the next 2 hours (which, for those of you in the Eastern Time Zone, might be about the time you're waking up), I'm gonna have to bail and get some sleep.

Of course, at this rate they'll still be going strong when I wake up. O__o;

How long are poker games meant to last...? I mean, this sounds quite a stretch - but there was that tennis match which went on for about 48 hours last Wimbledon, and by comparison, it's a surprise when a game of cricket lasts anything less than five days :)
