So that Whole 20-Minute Thing? Not So Much

I think everyone, players, dealers and reporters alike were confused about the complex structure that has been instituted for this first-of-its-kind event. But things seem to have settled down quite a bit.

For instance the whole 20 minutes for flop games/20 for stud games/20 for NLHE and PLO structural oddity seems to be just that. The games are simply rotating every eight hands no matter where the clock happens to be.

I spoke with Tournament Director Jack Effel and he confirmed that the 20-minute sub-levels were never part of the plan for today, despite rumors to the contrary.
