Shuffling chips among the short stacks

Since the break, the distinction between the two groups has settled into the pattern of play as the short stacks scramble to put up chips. Perceval and Michailidis, however, have so far resisted calling off with too wide a range and therefore neither one of them has added a ton of chips to the “have-not” stacks – so a lot of this action results in the three shorter-stacked players effectively running on the spot. Chips are moving around the table, but not in such a way that the conditions of the tournament have changed.
