Overall

Qualifying: 4 games per ticket. Ranking on each game played on the ticket will contribute to the overall value of that ticket.

Qualifying runs all day Friday, December 8th and Saturday, December 9th.

Finals will be run on Sunday, December 10th starting at 10am. Check in time is 9:45am.

The number of players moving to the A division of the final rounds will be determined by the total number of players entering. No more than half of the players will be moved into the A division of the final rounds.

Players in the final rounds will be grouped into 4-player groups based on seeding. It is possible there will be some first round byes or 3-player groups depending on the number of qualifying players. Each 4-player group will play on a 4-game bank. Each game is scored 4 points for first, 2 points for second, 1 point for third, and 0 points for 4th (3-player groups are scored 4-2-1). Top two players will move on to the next round.

Players not making the A division of the finals will play in the B division, under a similar format. There may be some 3-player groups in the B division, and/or some byes, depending on the total number of players. The top two players will still advance out of a 3-player group.
