Warm Up Tournaments/2 + 2 Meet up?

[amb]

Arriving Wednesday AM and my starting day is 1c (sunday). After doing a little searching I have came up with the following 'recommended' tournaments:

Yoadrians: Caesar's has a fantastic tournament at noon ($80+$50) and 7 p.m.($125+100) where the initial buy in gives you 1500 chips and the add-on gives you 3000 more. Blinds go up every 40 minutes. Very well-run.

The Wynn has a great tournament on Thursdays for $330 that has the same structure as Bellagio's. And I'm a bigger fan of the Wynn's room, so I'd recommend that over the Bellagio's, too.

I'd say your best bet for a GREAT day is to do the Wynn's $330 at noon, and the Caesar's $225 at 7 p.m. That will be a solid tournament day for you ... unless, of course, you can't make it to Caesar's because you win the Wynn's.

AtlasRaised: $230 MTT at Mirage...one of the best nightly tourneys in Vegas. 3000 chips, 30 minute levels, 25-50 blinds to start, 5 to 6 full tables, and usually a huge chunk of dead money.

Anyone have recommendations along the same lines (favorable blind structure, levels)?

Also, if the 2 + 2’ers wanted to all get together for one of these I think that would be great (and educational for me).

Actually, I also was thinking of these tournies to warm up - Caesars and Wynn mainly on my mind. I am arriving on Wednesday and play on 1c so plenty of time for some tournaments and fun. Meeting would be fun.

I'm planning on playing in the Wynn tourney on Thursday.

I played in the Caesar's 7PM and can attest to how good of a tourney it is. Highly recommended.

Thanks bwana, but the site is being worked on a ton right now, so some of the information might not be accurate, and a lot is missing. But the forums are a nice touch that were added.

Sounds good, I am playing the Wynn Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at noon. There is a sports book around the corner so if you are interested I’ll be there between 11:00 and 12:00 having lunch. Also one of my buddies is going to play and he is the definition of dead money (just in case you needed a little incentive).
