The following structure will be used for all scheduled events on the Main Tour. This is an all-new structure for 2012, giving every live event even more play. Combined with raised starting stacks in the new year, the GUKPT provides one of the best live tournament structures around, with all festival events dealer-dealt.
Some super satellites may use a different structure to this one.
Pot Limit events will not feature a running ante.
