The top two players from each group will advance to the next round. Then the final 8 will play in the semifinals with the same rules with the top two from each group advancing to the final 4. The final four will play 3 more games to decide the winner. Player choosing bank cannot pick the same bank 2 rounds in a row.

The three games played each round of finals are chosen by picking a bank from the list which will have one game from various eras. The top seed of the group will choose the bank of games. The player positions are predetermined and are as follows:

No money or other prizes will be awarded to a top 100 player in B division. If they choose to not play in B, they will be listed as finishing the tournament tied for last in B div, then players will be called up from below B in order they qualified to replace any players that elect to not play in B finals.
