Re: Venetian $500,000 Freeroll (For poker players or casino high rolle

But if it's something where they are going to fail to make it to their minimum number of players for the full $500k payout (I think they stipulated 300 players) and they are bringing in EXACTLY enough outsiders to bring it up to 300 players for that pay-out then I'm okay with the decision.

Absolutely. That would be a GREAT thing, and a boon to the poker players who put in their time. If V was gonna put in $1000 per player up to 500 players, and they've only got 350 likely to qualify, inviting 150 slot players and setting the prize pool to $500K is wonderful.
And I wouldn't be unhappy with them tweaking the 50*3 rule for common sense things. If someone put in 52, 49, and 50 hours, of course it's ok to let them in. If someone gets 199 hours, let them in. But if some $100/hand BJ player has put in 30 hours total in the poker room, no, it's not ok to invite him.
