The players have asked for a structure change and they have just all agreed to it.
Instead of this being a two-day event, they have decided to change it to a one-day tournament. The level duration has decreased from 40 minutes to 30 minutes for each level.
Eight levels of late registration and unlimited reentries will be possible throughout those levels. A 15-minute break will take place after every four levels.
Two players are seated at the tables right now with them awaiting the rest to show up as five players are currently registered for the tournament.
PokerNews has just been informed of a structure change for this event today.
The new scheduled start time is now 5 p.m. local time. They will play eight levels of 40 minutes each with a 15-minute break after Level 3 and 6.
Late registration will remain possible until the end of Level 11 on Day 2 which will start at noon local time.
The start of the tournament is still delayed as they're waiting for at least five players to register before kicking off with the tournament. There are currently three players registered.
The start of the tournament has been delayed as the organization is giving players more time to register.
With a scheduled starting time of noon, local time, The One Drop is back in Europe with a $10,000 buy-in plus an optional $1,111 which will go to the foundation. The 2022 Luxon Pay Mediterranean Poker Party is hosting this charitable event here at the beautiful Merit Royal Diamond Hotel & Casino in North Cyprus.
The One Drop Foundation has been ensuring access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene since 2007. Soon, they will have improved the living conditions of more than 2,700,000 people worldwide.
With 82 fundraising initiatives held spread over 14 different countries, they have raised more than $149,000,000 since the start with $58,500,000 coming from their Las Vegas events. Guy Lalibert�� is the founder of One Drop and is also known for founding Cirque du Soleil and Lune Rouge.
