888Live Brings Shot Clock to London Festival

[user252447]

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 100 ante

For the first time in 888Live tournaments Aspers will see the introduction of the Shot Clock.

Once the dealer has dealt the last card in a hand they operate the timer with a pedal and the 'Shot Clock' begins and each player will be given a certain amount of time to act.

If a player is facing a bet or raise, the timer will begin only after their chips are counted and the number of chips required to call are stated. Players will also be allotted a certain number of time extensions, each of which will add an extra thirty seconds to the timer in the event that they need more time to reach a decision.

You can read more about the Shot Clock which will be used in both the High Roller and the Main Event later in the Festival.
