The last 5 mins are the byoyomi, the number of periods is arbitrary. If the match is 3 hrs, byoyomi starts at 2:55. This is common practice.

Thanks. Is it three hours, with sudden death? It says there is byo-yomi
from 5 minutes left, but didn't mention seconds per move, so it is just
a 300, 299, 288, 287, ... kind of countdown?
