Chess Clock


Enjoy fast-paced, dynamic games with a set time limit.
  • A Chess Clock designates a set amount of time for each player to act
    • During the pre-flop action, each player has 30 seconds to take an action, which is part of their Chess Clock time
    • A player can click on the time extension button to use some or all of their remaining Chess Clock time
    • After the flop, a player will use the remaining Chess Clock time automatically
  • A player's chess Clock starts to decrease during the player's turn
  • Once the Chess Clock expires, the player only has 5 seconds per turn to make a decision
  • Once the final table is reached, each player’s total Chess Clock time is determined by adding their remaining tournament time bank with the average 'Tournament M' value
    • The average Tournament M value is calculated as follows: (Chip Total of all players) / (Small Blind + Big Blind + Total Ante) / Number of Players
    • The minimum and maximum Chess Clock values are 1 minute and 15 minutes, respectively

Blind Rollback


Blind level is adjusted to match the average stack of the final table.
  • In certain tournaments with 100 or more entries, the blind level may be adjusted automatically to ensure a better final table gameplay experience
  • If the average player stack is less than 40BB at the commencement of the final table, the blind level will be rolled back to ensure that the average stack is at least 40BB for the first hand
  • The blinds may roll back multiple levels if necessary. For example, if the average stack was 15BB at the start of a final table, the blinds may need to be rolled back three or four levels
  • This ensures more hands will be played at the final table
  • If the average player stack stands at more than 100 BB, the blind levels may be rolled forward to ensure that the average stack is no more than 100BB
