Just thinking out loud here, for the heads-up event (and possibly also the shootout), there's a big disparity in how quickly tables end. Maybe so that people don't need to be waiting at their computer (although that would of course be what Stars wants: you at your computer with Stars opening, playing on the side), a break schedule that incorporates the end of rounds. For heads-up, for instance, either a 5-minute break after Round 1 ends, or a posting that "Round 2 will begin when all Round 1 matches are complete, but not before 17:00 ET." (two hours after the event start)
