Kinda early to post about this, but I'll put it out there for you anyhow. Turning Stone will have a series of deep stack tournaments starting November 28th-December 2nd. The events will be as follows:

The events will all start with 10,000 in starting chips except for the $1070 ME will start with 15,000. Levels will be 40 minutes for all events except the ME which will be 60 minutes.

The blind structure will change slightly for these events form what we have used traditionally in the past. It will be as follows:

Re: Turning Stone Superstacks Series
 

i am probably not going this go round, i am still sketched out from last visit when turning stone security would not leave deeb's room alone.

also i will finally be 21 by then, and that will probably cut down on turning stone trips by about 50% for me [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Hi Folks,

Thinking of heading over from Ireland to play in this series (structures look good - and, [censored] it, I can). Just wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction (any fields I enter will automatically have a one buy - in overlay):

Assuming I don't drive and land in JFK - how would one best get to Turningstone?

Thanks!!

Re: Turning Stone Superstacks Series
 

i paid deeb for use of his couch the last 2 trips, and everyone was in your room, i'm not just gonna spend the trip alone!

>:[

i am prob slighted because i essentially *mooched* my athens friends in PCA bc they didnt make me pay for rooms but i slept on the floor. i tend to keep this mindset.

Re: Turning Stone Superstacks Series
 

Lloyd,

JFK -> Syracuse, NY

call turning stone to set up an appointment for a limo to pick you up. its like $70 pre-tip.

It doesn't seem worth the trip from Ireland, but I supposed it's OK if you want to take a trip. Also, Turning Stone is in the middle of nowhere in an economically depressed area, and is really not much to see.

I don't know the details, but you might be able to get a connecting flight on a fairly small plane to Syracuse, NY, which is about 55 kilometers away. From there it is an expensive cab ride. Turning Stone may have a shuttle from there. You could also get a ride from a 2+2er.

You could also call Turning Stone and ask them how to get there from NYC without a car.

It is 4 hours driving time from NYC, but realistically takes more with rests and traffic. About 400 kilometers distance.

Hi Betgo,

It undoubtably isn't worth a trip in terms of EV, etc. But I have the time available and would probably fit in a couple of days in NYC for some Christmas shopping aswell.

Would anyone have any idea as to whether an AMTRAK runs from NYC through Syracuse?

Thanks for the replies btw!!

Lloyd.

No train service. The train system in the US is not so good, except along the cooridor from Washington-Phil-NYC-Boston. There is probably a bus, but you are better off flying.

Ok, cheers. I will check out flight schedules, etc - and give Turingstone a ring themselves as you suggested if I am struggling.
