Hey,
Does anyone know what the Grand Final structure will be like next weekend? One hour blind levels? Also, does anyone have any idea as to what time the Saturday session finishes up?
Cheers

45 minute blind levels, minimum ten minute break every two hours or so. Lunch and Dinner breaks will be 45 minutes in duration if I recall correctly.
This time the tournament will commence at 10am and finish around 10.30am.
Yes it is a big day, but most players wanted a true deepstack experience, welcome to the world of professional poker guys, 12 - 14 hour days are the norm in prestige buy in tournaments.
