Some important notes for both tournaments:
- The 'pot' will be lesser this time: $1 for every tournament entrant, fully sponsored by TKA Virtualand. Tournament fee will now go towards covering Round1 admin costs etc.
- On the other hand, machines will be set to FREE PLAY! =) Basically, this means less winnings for the top 3 and more savings for everyone.
- Pot distribution same as always: 1st place- 50%, 2nd place- 30%, 3rd place- 20%
