Good question.
In case of a draw among two or more participants,
1.) The player who has played more rounds will be given priority.
2.) In case two or more players have played the same number of rounds, there will be an additional tournament (with no extra prize) to sort out the rankings.
3.) In no case, other than if any finalist withdraws his name voluntarily with prior information, or fails to join the grand finale within the first 30 minutes, more than 8 players will advance to the grand finale.

Hope this clarifies any doubts, and thank you once again for asking the right question (where you can  ).
