Players will begin their journey in the 2026 RGPS Passport Reno Main Event with a starting stack of 30,000. Levels are dialed for 30 minutes through the first flight of play.
The levels will then be raised to 40 minutes at the onset of Day 2. Players are entitled to unlimited reentries, and participants can play in all four Day 1 flights. Should a player qualify for Day 2 more than once, they will take the higher chip stack into Day 2, and any lower stacks will be removed from play, and the player will receive the lowest Day 2 payout.
The top 12.5% of each flight, rounded down, will advance to Day 2, where play will resume at the lowest level of play during the Day 1 flights.
