the convention this year (Wednesday, June 18th at noon). It is currently set-up to have three preliminary rounds -- one starting at noon, one starting at 1:00 PM & the last starting at 2:00 PM. We anticipate each of these three tables to have up to six players. The two players from each table that have the most chips at the end of the session will move on to a semi-final (if there are more than three preliminary round tables) or final round (for three or less preliminary tables). If there is a semi-final round, the top two from each of those semi-final tables will move on to the final table. If no semi-final round, the final table will be the top two players from each of the preliminary tables. Then, the one who ends up with the most "money" (in NCV chips) is the winner. There is a bit of betting strategy involved...unlike just pulling a slot machine handle.
