Level 16 has begun with blinds of 2,000/4,000 and an ante of 500. Registration has now closed and the prize pool has become official with 139 entries generating a prize pool of $41,700. Half of that is being distributed through bounties, while the other half will be awarded to the top 20 places. A first-level payout will earn players $242 plus bounties, while the eventual winner will earn $5,212 plus all applicable bounties. Complete payout information can be found in the Payouts Tab.

Levels have increased to 12 minutes in length and will stay that way until a winner has been declared.
