This setup guarantees a spectacle of strategies and enthusiasm as players vie for the top spot.
In the initial round, all 48 competitors will be allocated across eight tables, each comprising six players. The advancement criteria are clear-cut: the first player to go out and the player ending with the lowest hand score in each group will progress to the subsequent round, while the rest will face elimination. This phase concludes either with a player going out or at the end of a predefined time limit. Should no player go out by the time limit, the two individuals with the lowest hand scores will advance, thereby escalating the competitiveness of the tournament.
