30-Second Action Clock by Protection Poker

With the field down to the final 19 tables (171 players) — one table away from the money — the 30-second Action Clock by Protection Poker has been introduced into play, and will be in use for the rest of this tournament.

Players have 30 seconds to make each decision, and they have been given a limited number of non-transferable Time Chips, which can be used to extend any decision by an additional 30 seconds.

Every player in the field has received 10 Time Chips, and these will be their only Time Chips until they reach the final three tables (24 players). The final 24 players will be reset to exactly six Time Chips each, and the final six players will be reset to exactly eight Time Chips each.
