All three events consist of three qualifying rounds, three rounds in the semifinals and four rounds in the final.

Open Pairs:
340 pairs are playing the qualifying rounds. Approximately 116 pairs qualify for the semifinal A. They will be joined by the pairs dropping out of the KO and some pairs who didn’t have to play the qualification, to form 130 pairs playing in five sections of 13 tables. The remaining pairs will play the semifinal B. There is no carryover. About 40 pairs in the semifinal A will qualify for the final A. The top six pairs in the semifinal B will join them with four to six pairs who will play the final KO. The pairs in the semifinal A not qualified for the final A will play the final B together with approximately 66 pairs from the semifinal B, forming six sections of 13 tables. The remaining pairs play the final C. The pairs who will play the final A will have a carryover from the semifinals with a weight of one and a half sessions.

Women’s Pairs:
Eight-one pairs are playing the qualifying and 33 to 35 of them qualify for the semifinal A together with five to seven pairs who played the KO-8 and KO-4. They form two sections of 10 tables. The other pairs play the semifinal B. The final A consists of 17-18 pairs from the semifinal A, the top three pairs from semifinal B and the pairs who played the KO final (probably five pairs). The remaining pairs play the final B. Carryovers are the same as in the Open Pairs.

Senior Pairs:
Ninety-four pairs are playing in the qualifying rounds. The semifinal A consists of 52 pairs with four to six from the KO-8 and KO-4. The others play the semifinal B. Approximately 25 pairs go to the final A together with four (?) pairs from the KO final and the three top pairs in the final B. The others play the final B. The carryover is as described.

All these numbers might change slightly depending on the drop-ins.
