Rules and Format
It’s important to note that the event will run in the best stack format. If you qualify into Day 2 from a previous Day 1, you will be eligible to re-enter a new Starting Day.
Players who make it into Day 2 with multiple stacks, however, will only have to play their largest stack, whereas the rest will be removed from the event. Players are also allowed to forfeit their stacks prior to registration.
The organizers will introduce a Shot Clock once the event is down to only 6 tables. A player’s hand will be automatically forfeited as soon as the time on the Shot Clock has lapsed.
