*We will leave some T100 chips in play but color up most of the chips to T500. The remaining T100 chips are availble to resolve split pots if necessary.

There will be a five minute break and redraw of seats for the final table (10 players).

For All BARGE Poker Tournaments:

To facilitate table balancing and fairness, a player chosen to move to balance a table will be selected via position from button instead of from a random draw.

Chip Races

No one will be allowed to bust out because of the chip race. Anyone in such danger will receive one higher denomination chip.
