    Probably been discussed before but what is up with stars breaks? I'm in 3 tourneys now. On break each one has a different time left. How is that syncronised!?

    I believe they wait for all hands to finish before starting a break in an individual tournament. That means they will go on break at slightly different times. My experience has been that they don't differ by more than a minute or two.

    The break begins at :55 past the hour. Once all hands in each individual tournament have been completed, a 5 minute break ensues for each tournament. This means that some breaks will begin exactly at :55 while others may not start for 2-3 minutes while other hands are finished. As long as you're not involved in one the hands that is dragging on, you get at least 5 minutes, if not more.

    cant believe people cant figure this out on there own.

    and if you still haven't got it, yes breaks start at a 55 past the hour. Your tourneys clock will not start counting down until hands are completed in that tourney.
