Brief Pause
Don Zewin, David Williams, and Justin Bonomo all lodged complaints with the floor about the use of the RFID cards (the cards used for the live stream) at their table but not at the other table. After a few consultations with tournament staff, they are swapping out shuffle machines and going with the regular cards. The clock is paused briefly while they take care of this, but cards should be back in the air within the next minute.
