Notwithstanding rule 7.4, the number of players to progress to the next session of a tournament from any given session, or to the final, shall be at the discretion of the casino operator, provided:

(a) the applicants were notified in writing, before they entered the tournament, of the terms and conditions upon which such discretionary advancement was to be permitted; and

(b) the casino operator complies with those terms and conditions.

Only those players who are winners in accordance with either rule 7.4 or rule 7.5 shall proceed to the next session of the tournament.

7.7

Subject to rules 7.8, 7.9 and 7.10, the winner of the tournament shall be the player who holds the greatest value of credits at the end of the final session of play, and any other place-getters provided for in the conditions of entry shall be determined in accordance with the value of credits held respectively by the other players at the table at the end of that session.

7.8

If there are two or more players each holding the greatest value of credits at the end of the final session, those players shall engage in a play-off to determine the winner of the tournament. If the conditions of entry to the tournament provide for a runner-up, and the play-off to determine the winner does not establish the runner-up (being the player in the play-off who at its end holds the greatest value of credits after the winner), there shall be a further play-off to establish the runner-up.

7.9

All placings after that of runner-up which are provided for in the conditions of entry to the tournament shall then be determined in accordance with the value of the credits held by the respective players at the end of:

(a) firstly, the play-off (if any) to establish the runner-up;

(b) secondly, the play-off (if any) to determine the winner of the tournament, should this prove necessary; and

(c) finally, the final session of ordinary play, should this prove necessary.

7.10

Where two or more players are eligible pursuant to the rules for a particular prize, by virtue of them holding the same number of credits, they shall be entitled to share equally in that prize combined with:

(a) where two players are so eligible, the subsequent prize (if any);

(b) where three players are so eligible, the two subsequent prizes (if any),

and so on. This rule shall not apply to the winner of the tournament or the runner-up.
