Arena banks will be announced during qualifying and will include games from several eras. Arena banks will include some games from the qualifying and some games from the side tournaments. 2 players advance and 2 players are eliminated from each group at the end of each round. PAPA scoring (4/2/1/0 points for 1st/2nd/3rd/4th). Round of 16 will take place on Saturday night at 9:30 pm. Round of 8 and top 4 will take place at 9:00 am on Sunday morning.

The B Division finals will include the next 8 players who did not make it into the top 16 and who do not have an IFPA ranking of 500 or better. The B Division finals will happen on Sunday morning at 9:00 am. Since the player list is restricted for this portion of the event, the results from qualifying will be used for IFPA results for players outside of the top 16.
