Action Clock Introduced with 180 Players Left

Action Clock in Play

The field has reached the final 20 tables (180 players), so the 30-second Action Clock by Protection Poker will be used from this point forward, all the way until the end of the tournament.

Players will have 30 seconds* to make each of their betting decisions, and each player has received four non-transferable Time Chips that can be used to extend their time an additional 30 seconds. These are the only Time Chips they will receive until the field reaches the final three tables (24 players).

The final 24 players will be reset to exactly six Time Chips each, and at the televised WPT Final Table, the final six players will be reset to exactly eight Time Chips each.

* The 30-second timer begins from the moment the dealer announces the size of the bet or raise. If someone moves all in, the timer won’t begin for the next player to act until the all-in stack is counted down.
