Event 16 was hand-for-hand for quite a while, as players refused to get eliminated on the bubble. This inevitably lead to a number of players who got blinded down to very short stacks. Since the bubble has burst, we’ve been seeing one all-in after another, including a few multi-way all-ins. The dynamics have definitely changed, but things are beginning to slow back down now that the remaining players have deepened their stacks.

With the recent elimination of Jean-Philippe Dupuis in 19th, Event 16 has now reached the money! These are the remaining players:
