Antes will kick in from Level 3 and will follow the recently popular method of Big Blind Ante i.e. the player in the big blind will put up antes for the entire table.

Day 2, set to start at noon 29 September will give more play for the survivors of the Main Event as 6 additional minutes will ve added to each blind level. Play will continue till the field is down to the final nine (no matter how long it takes). The third and final day’s action will begin at 1:00 p.m. on 30 September and the final table will enjoy 60-minute blinds levels from there on till it reaches headsup. At this stage, the clock is reduced to 30 minutes until a champion is crowned.
