Sauce is yet to limp. Something that he has become quite (in)famous for doing recently.

First 4bet of the game just came from KTPOKP, it was quickly followed by Sauce's first 5bet. No call.

I don't see this match finishing today, this is a tournament that isn't designed for a spectator imo.
Roughly 300hands/hr, 3000hands~10 hours).

One of these guys would need to win at over 33bb/100 in order to take 10buyins within 10 hours.
I got all excited over nothing

It does not exist any tournament lobby. It is more of a cash game championship than a tournament actually.

Are the players permitted to use auto-rebuy for this?

So how long do you think Stars would let them have these tables, if they past the 3000 hands mark?

They would double the stakes if they were to reach 3000 hands. For how long they would be entitled those tables I do not know.

Someone needs to alert the pokerstars management team. They need to double the blinds immediately. If one of these players was to have a 25bb/100 winrate, it would take them AT LEAST 11 hours to finish the match.

OVERALL: 310 out of 2,500 hands played. Sauce123 leads with $5,724 profit.

The first hour: A lot of 3betting from both players, a good amount of check-raising from Sauce's side. However, not that many hands played and not many all-ins at all.
