Will 2B play for the same amount of time as 2A, regardless of the number of players left? I realize it's unlikely that 2B would get below 260 players, but is it possible they could burst the bubble today? Or would they stop play before that?

they said yesterday that they were going to play down to the exact #. Bursting the bubble today would be incredibly unfair to anyone who bubbles today. Bubble will burst tomorrow.

They'd play down exactly to the bubble, or exact number of players from 2A?

Would bursting the bubble today be incredibly unfair to those bubbling today? Or would it be more unfair if the players from 2B got to go to day 3 playing for less time than the players from 2A?

They will play for the exact same amount of time that 2A did. Relative fairness, split fields cause inherent problems.

theyll play down to the exact # as yesterday: 350. 549 are paid, so they will eliminate 199 more on day 3 before the money.

I think if they did it the other way it would be more unfair to the group that doesnt get money, the people who busted today.

According to the Pokernews reports, they'll play exactly the same amount of time that they did yesterday:

Tournament Info

Tournament staff have just informed us that we are likely to get down to 350 players before the end of the fifth of today's levels. If that occurs, players tomorrow will finish at the same time as players finish today. This is to ensure that players receive equal playing time before the field is joined as one.

Playing both days for the same time (instead) just make it seem like the two days of day 2 was actually just 2 different rooms. They start and end at the same time as if it were the same day. They're doing their best to simulate having enough room for everyone.
