Potential Change to Play

[user235800]

Niveau 9 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Tournament Director Paul Campbell has explained to the remaining players that there may be a change to play depending on several factors.

This tournament was expected to play 10 levels on Day 1 with registration closing at the completion of the tenth level which is approximately 2:00 a.m. With the tournament playing at a faster then expected rate and just 17 players remaining, it has been decided that if the tournament reaches 14 players, play will be paused for the evening, the feature table will then be broken (following the original breaking order), and players will head home for the night.

When play resumes on Tuesday, the tournament will be treated as a continuation of Day 1 and there will be no re-draw until level ten is complete.

Any player that enters between now and the 2:00 a.m. cutoff has the option to jump into the tournament straight away, or will be treated as an after-play entrant and won't be able to sit down until the beginning of level 11. Byron Kaverman is the one player that was planning on entering tomorrow, and has now been given these new options to consider while registration is still open.
