They all have the same structure:

  • Starting Stack — 30,000 chips (100 bb)

  • 15+ levels — 9 minutes

At each final table, there is a blind rollback to an approximately 30 BB average stack.

Sun Run Flighted Events

This series’ schedule includes three multiflights with the same schedule:

  • Flights start daily, every 2 hours from 08:05 to 00:05 ET from June 7th to 28th, 2026.

There is no cumulative stack in this series. Players can only play one flight of a single tournament at a time, and qualifying for Day 2 will result in them losing access to the remaining flights.
