MECHANICS

GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW

  • Short Deck is played just like NLH except a 36-card deck is used (2’s to 5’s removed) instead of a full deck.
  • In Short Deck, a Flush beats a Full House, and the lowest possible Straight is A 6 7 8 9.
  • Single Antes will be posted by all players (there are no blinds).
  • The Button player will post double the ante amount.

BULLETS

  • Players have the option of starting with 1, 2, or all 3 bullets at once.
  • Bullets can only be redeemed before the start of a hand (20,000 chips per bullet).
  • All bullets must be in play before the close of registration.

LEVELS

  • Levels will be 15 minutes for the duration of the tournament until a winner is declared.

RE-ENTRY

  • Unlimited re-entry is allowed before the close of registration.

PAYOUTS

  • Approximately one in seven entries (15%) will be in the money.

SHOT CLOCKS & TIME BANKS

  • Shot Clocks will be introduced one table away from ITM, with each player receiving six 20-second time banks.
  • At the start of the Final Table, players will receive an additional three 20-second time banks.

PACE OF PLAY

  • Players are required to make decisions within a reasonable timeframe.
  • Players who are found to intentionally abuse time, deliberately stall, or purposely slow down the game’s progression will be subjected to a 5-second shot clock for all subsequent decision-making.

SEATING & RE-DRAWS

  • Play will be 6-handed for the duration of the tournament with a Final Table of 7 players.
  • Seating re-draws will be conducted prior to the start of the Final Table.

STAFF FEE
