GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW:

• Each player starts with 3 RIT cards (an additional card is given at the Final Table).
• RIT cards are only used when 2 players go all-in; they can’t be used with 3 or more players.
• The first player going all-in has the option to use their RIT card.
• If they don’t have one or choose not to use it, the other player can use theirs.
• Half the pot goes to the winner of the first board, and the other half to the winner of the second board.

LEVELS:

• Levels will be 10 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 implemented throughout the tournament.
• Each player has 15 seconds to act on all decisions.
• Players receive 2-time bank cards worth 15 seconds each, then one additional time bank card at the end of every break.

SEATING & RE-DRAWS:

• Play will move to 9-handed when play permits.
• Seating re-draws will be conducted prior to the start of the Final Table.

TRANSITION TO HANDS-PER-LEVEL AT FINAL TABLE:
