Default Had my heart set on Caesar\'s Noon Tourney

Going to Vegas on Thursday through Sunday. Had been planning on playing the Ceasar's Noon Tourney on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Called the poker room last night and due to the WSOP Circuit Event, they are not running the noon tourney.

Alternative suggestions for a low buy-in ($150 or less), no rebuy (or one optional like the Caesar's) tournament that I can play this weekend?

I checked out AllVegasPoker, but there doesn't seem to be anything that fits for me. Ideally, I'd play during the day so that I can play cash games at night. But on Friday and Saturday I could play at night. Sunday I have to play daytime as I have a redeye back to the East Coast.

Not interested in a push-fest. If that's the only option, then I'll just play ring games all weekend...

Thanks.

There's a $200 buy-in every night for the next 2 weeks at Caesar's at 7pm (check Pokerpages for details). I don't know if this is part of the WSOP Circuit or if it follows Caesar's more traditional daily tourney structure.

The only other non-lottery tourneys I've played in were at Wynn and Bellagio (and that one was a while ago), and both of those are $300-500-1000/range.

Anyone know what the structure is on these. It's not posted on PokerPages or the Caesar's website?

Has anyone played in the first few that have already gone off?

I grabbed a page describing tonight's $200 7pm tourney an hour ago as I left there.

30 minute rounds, break every 3 rounds, start with T1000.
Blinds/Antes are:

25/25
25/50
50/100
100/200
100/200/25
150/300/25
200/400/50
300/600/75
400/800/100
600/1200/200
800/1600/300
1000/2000/400
1500/3000/500
2K/4K/500
3K/6K/1K
4K/8K/1K

I haven't played one, but in another thread someone in the last couple days said it very quickly turns into an all-in fest. Easy to see why... T1000 starting means you better hit something by about the 3rd level or you're out of maneuvering room.

Didn't the Mirage just start running a daily tournament with 1 hour levels?

Yes... very annoying to lose our noon tourney to the WSOP Circuit circus.

Mirage tourneys are $330 Mon-Thu and $540 Fri/Sat. That is, if they ever manage to get enough players to run one. My last trip throught he Mirage at 12:55 they had 0 players signed up. Should be a great tourney if they can ever get people to show up to play it.

Wynn Tuesday-Thursday is $330 as well. Friday is $540.

Sahara does their $42 with a single $20 rebuy 7 days a week at 11am, 7pm, and 11pm. Never done one at 11am but folks say it's the smallest of them. 7pm usually has >100 players, 11pm has more like 70, and 4 tables is apparently kinda normal for 11am.
