Hey everyone,

I just got off the phone with Ken at the poker room.
Caesars has 150 still left for tomorrow's $300 + $ 30 event.
He said the tournament will likely sell out before tomorrow.

Players can pregister the night before.
I plan on going about 6:30 if anyone wants to meet up for dinner please let me know.

That sucks! No way I can get there ther today. Are they taking alternates? So ther eis no way to register by phone? Only in person? Big time bummer. I was so looking forward to this.

Any additional info you can give is greatly appreciated. Certainly worth a beer after day one!

Thanks!

Looks like they switched over to the tape info @ Caesars so I can't even get a hold of the Floor to find out if they'll be taking alternates tomorrow.

they took alternates in Event 1...for what that is worth.

[RustyJay]

It's worth alot. Prossibly even enough to make me take the chance of just showing up as early as I can manage tomorrow morning and hoping 4 the best.

I could not get through again to a live person. I will have to check it out in person tonight.

I live in Long Island and am leaving for AC in a coup hours, I just called Caesars to ask a few questions. This is a rough transcript of my conversation with the poker room.

Me: Is tomorrows $300 + 40 event sold out yet?
Idiot: I don't know

M: Well do you know if the event is going to be capped?
I: No clue

M: Will they be accepting alternates?
I: uhhhhhhhh

M: SMD

Then he tells me to dial extension 5638 to ask questions about the tournament, and i hang up.

When i call back, the operator tells me that extension is for outgoing calls only.

Guess ill just play the megasat to the main event if i cant get in.

[RustyJay]

Yup, that's about the level of 'service' I got from the guy when I called yesterday, what a joke. Well, maybe screw it, instead of trying to get there all early and have to wait around for hours and risk getting involved in some ring game that I'll hate to leave, I'll just show up later in the day and shoot for some Sats for the main event.

Ok..I just got off the phone with the poker room. I spoke with someone named "Charlie", he told me that they planned on limiting the event to 1200 people.

He said they did not sell out yet, and if I get there tonight I will not get shut out.

I didn't even know this tournament existed, and now I want to go. I don't really feel like spending the night though. Hmm...
