15 Minute Break
Although the whole event has been action-packed, heart-throbbing, nail-biting fun. The heads up has been slow and tentative. Nico Behling however now has 340,000 so unless something out of the blue happens, we could be nearing the end. The next level (an extra level has been added) is 24. The blinds will be 12,000/24,000.
