How about taking the first shot at explaining this one?

Then I will come along and interpret for her to human speech,  if I can!  (LMAO)

How are you doing?  We haven't "talked" for awhile.  Are you still way ahead in the black?

May you always keep your cool and play your best!

Still wondering about this.

This is the only thing I can think of that I have been able to read the definition of, and still not understand it at all. I don't know why that would be either.

I understand what happens when it goes to 'hand for hand", we all wait for a moment or so... play is suspended temporarily. And I know that it resumes when the other table's hand is finished.

What I don't understand is why it matters that their hand is finished before we begin our next one.  Nothing like that ever makes any difference in the rest of the tournament, but suddenly it does when there are only 2 tables left? Why would it make any difference then or ever?

Hi SunSpun and great question to ask..:) Hand for Hand is done when the amount of players is reduced to the point where the next pay level will increase.

So if there are 11 players left and the final table has 10 seats available the game will go to hand to hand untill the 11th player is removed from the game. This is how I understand it anyway and I know I had to ask myself when I first saw that...lol

I could be mistaken somewhat on this and maybe our Guru could lend a hand in helping confirm or correct me if I am wrong...:)

Hope I helped you though..:)

OK, in part, you said,

"So if there are 11 players left and the final table has 10 seats available the game will go to hand to hand untill the 11th player is removed from the game." 

And yeah, this is what I see happening alright, whenever they say it's hand for hand and nearing the end of the tourney... but ... why? I still dont' see what the point is.

I'm sure it has all to do with what you said in the beginning of your post, about the next pay level... and I do see what you mean by that, but I'm still missing something, because I don't see how it all ties together.

Just don't see why it would make a difference if they wait for the other table to finish their hand before starting our next one ---  or if they didn't wait, and just let us start the next hand, regardless of what was happening at the other table. How could waiting make any difference to the other table?

Sorry but can u tell me any more about it?

thanks again
