Day 1 will play for ten levels with a 15-minute break every two levels. Day 2 will start up at 1 p.m. Thursday and play for ten levels with 15-minute breaks and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 16 around 7:30 p.m.

Day 3 will follow a similar structure and Day 4 will play down to a winner with 15-minute breaks every two levels and a to-be-determined dinner break.
