wpt bahamas question

[shootaa]

does anyone know the format of the tourney? starting stacks, how long in between level increases? thank you.

[Admo]

This year's structure is still unannounced.

Last year's structure:
10K starting stack
25/50 start
75 minute levels
15 minute break after each level

If I recall, there was no 75/150 level. Antes kicked in after 100/200. (meaning there was a 100/200 level, then a 100/200/25 level)

I asked in email, and this is what I received:
