The tournament is structured with starting stacks of 14,000 units, and levels that last (20) minutes over the course of the event.  The registration period for each flight is open through Level 8, with the day scheduled to end after Level 20 (or if 10% of the field remains, whichever comes first).  The tournament uses the big blind ante format, which was utilized for numerous events during the FSPC.

During that period , the promotion sees tournament players eligible each half-hour for $100 high hands, 2/2 limit hold'em players eligible for $200 high hands, 2/4 limit hold'em players eligible for $300 high hands, and all other raked games (1/2-5/10 NLH, 4/8 Omaha 8B, 6/12 O.E., etc.) eligible for $400 high hands.  

At 6:00pm-12:00am, the promotion transitions, and offers the opportunity for players to earn $1,500 every (30) minutes.  During that time period, high hands will be awarded as follows:
