Of the 250 top players from each &lsquo;heat&rsquo; who proceed to the semifinals, only 100 players will move on from the semifinals to the Grand Final. The Grand Final will features eight consecutive games, each scheduled 40 minutes apart.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n<div><strong>See Campaign: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/news.com\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/news.com<\/a><br \/><b>Contact Information:<\/b><br \/>Brittany A.
