The buy-in for the inaugural 3-day event is ₽371,000 (≈$5,723) and players will start with a 50,000 chip stack. There is a single re-entry available whilst late registration is open, which is until the start of Day 2 at 2 pm tomorrow. The tournament will also feature a shot clock, which will limit players to 30 seconds for each decision.
The tournament will feature 45-minute levels, with ten levels on the schedule for the day. There will be a short break after Levels 3,6 and 8. To read more about the schedule, please click here.
Cards will be in the air at 4 pm local time at the beautiful Casino Sochi. As ever, PokerNews will be in the thick of all the action, bringing you live updates from start to finish. See you back here in about an hour when play gets underway.
