My preference for the stream would be Morra/Sossei.
But I think table 999 means the TV table which is Frost/Morris.
Can anyone confirm this?

999 is the TV table

BTW anyone buying the stream should use the CSI chat room on Ustream.

How many entries? Scanning the bracket
on my phone, doesn't appear much.

Less participation than USBTC maybe.
Better payout though.

Are they playing alternating break?
