It is very simple: if you're in an Early Payouts eligible tournament, you'll receive your min-cash immediately upon reaching the money. When you either win the tournament or are eliminated, you'll receive the difference between your final payout and the early payout. The test will be very limited in scope. The current plan is to roll it out to Bigs tomorrow and only for players on the .COM, .EU, and .UK licenses.

The progressive rollout is meant to identify any issues with the functionality and allow Support to adjust to the types of queries and complaints they receive. If we don't run into any issues here, we'll roll it out across the site. Additionally, I believe the functionality will be live in .IT soon, as well as .DESH and .EE on the global site.
Idk if you get any pop up saying that min-cash has been credited to your account but if it doesn't show any pop up, it should so as to not cause any confusion like it did to op. (just how you get pop up when you knockout somebody)
