If the participant has earned the required number of points, a screen will appear that displays the session times that are available to sign up for. In the event that the participant has not earned the required number of points, the IGT Tournament kiosk will notify the participant that they must earn additional points to register. As sessions fill up to their respective capacity (14 max participants per session), the session time will be removed from the IGT Tournament Kiosk from the list of available sessions to participate in. Once the participant has been successfully registered at the IGT Tournament Kiosk, a confirmation receipt will be printed, which includes the ACE Players Club name, ACE Players Club account number, and session time. Participants must display their Tournament Session Ticket to the Tournament staff member at the tournament area 10 minutes prior to the session time, which is printed on the ticket. Seat assignment is randomly generated through the multi-media kiosk prior to each session.
