I wandered by today about 12:30 and Julie said they had only 2 players signed up. She was sure they'd get enough to run at least one table, but instead I wandered over and entered the Caesars tourney one round late. 4 hours later when I wandered back through Mirage to get to my car they were playing two tables with 6 each. So it's getting some traction.

$300+30 is Monday thru Thursday, 4000 starting tourney chips. Friday and Saturday they are doing $700+50 tourneys with 6000 starting chips. Claims <50 players they pay 5 spots (39%, 25%, 17%, 12%, 7%) and 50-124 pay 9 spots (38%, 19%, 13%, 7.5%, 6.5%, 5.5%, 4.5%, 3.5%, 2.5%).

1 hour rounds. Blinds/antes each round are:

25/50/0
50/100/0
100/200/0
100/200/25
200/400/25
300/600/50
400/800/75
600/1200/100
800/1600/200
1000/2000/300
1500/3000/500
2000/4000/500
3k/6k/1k
4k/8k/1k
6k/12k/2k
10k/20k/4k

Any over/under bets on how long until they take out a few levels or decrease the time from 60 minutes per round? If ever they get 100 players on Friday or Saturday, with 600K chips in play, they're probably gonna go 18 hours. I'm gonna guess they'll just cap it at 6 tables, or some such, but it's still gonna play a long time.
