On 4 days (A to E) players have the opportunity to qualify for the main tournament. Qualified players are those who still have game credits after each preliminary tournament day.

All four preliminary tournament days have the same starting stack of chips and blind level structure.

On Day 1, the tournament will be played to 17% of the number of entries or a maximum of the end of Level 14 (3000/5000/5000).

On Day 2, the tournament will continue with Level 14 (3000/5000/5000) or the lowest level played.

A player can only qualify once for the main tournament.

Main tournament day

Saturday, February 11, 2023 / 4:30 pm (until approx. 3 tables).

All players who have qualified for the main tournament will continue to play with the exact game credits they had available at the end of the preliminary tournament day.

On the main tournament day, players will play up to the set blind level, but no more than until 36 players remain in the tournament.

Final day

Sunday, February 12, 2023 / 12 p.m.

All players who have qualified for the final day will continue to play with the exact game credits they had available at the end of the main tournament day.

The final last round, and thus the tournament, will end when only one player remains in the tournament.
