*Additional Cards purchased will be added to the prize fund.

*All games are to be played as single player only.

*Top 2 players in each group advance to the next round, with the other 2 players in each group being eliminated. Ties for any of the Top 2 positions in any group will again be broken by a single game playoff on a random machine.
