Any idea if the $99 rate is available to non-Total Rewards card holders? Never played at Harrah's but would love to play Event 1 if I could get a room for $99.

You have to have a Total Rewards card to register in any of the tournaments, so you might as well get one ahead of time (can you do this online?) and try and get the room rate with it.

Newbie - Can you register for the tournaments in advance? (no Harrahs' player card) If not, how early should I get there to get registered for the Noon event on Sat. Dec 8th?

I don't believe that Harrah's is allowing offsite or internet pre-reg. In the past there has always been a huge line as the tournament start time nears for the lower buy-in weekend tournaments. If you don't want to wait for hours, I recommend arriving no later than 9am or stopping by the night before. The night before you'll probably have to register at the main casino cage.

Anyone know how the SNG satellites to small events are working, or should I call to get that info? I think I'll plan on driving up Saturday night and playing in Event 2.

The time to get a Total Rewards card shouldn't be ignored. On the morning of a weekend preliminary event it could take a significant amount of time. I can't tell you how long as it's been a while since I didn't have one.

P.S. Can't register for a tourney in NJ unless it's in person on site.

This really blows. Does anyone know how early you can register at Harrahs? I will be down there on Nov. 23rd and would love to register for Event #2 at that time.

If nobody knows I'll call them and post here.

Rob,

I'll be in AC nov 20th and 21st and was planning on buying in then. I recall asking harrahs about when they were going to start selling the circuit events and i can't remember the exact date they said, however i do remember that I concluded from their answer that I would be able to buyin during my november trip so you should be fine.....

Sorry...marijuana affects short term memory!

c u all at the circuit

Regged for Event #2 this morning at about 2am.

Had to go to the main casino cage. They had to get a supervisor and it still took about 15 mintues because no one really seemed to know how to do it. They claimed I needed a Harrahs card (even though I have a Total Rewards card already) and proceeded to print me out yet another gold plastic card. It finally all worked, and I got a pink tourny card as a receipt.

15 minutes of inconvienence in the wee hours of the morning still beats the hell out of waiting in line for 2.5 hours the morning of.

See you guys in a couple weeks.

I wonder ... have you used your TR card since they united each casino under one card system? I remember about a year ago I went to register in a Showboatament and they had to "reactivate" my Showboat TR card for the new system. My gf got a TR card this summer and it was a generic TR card; mine is still a Showboat branded card (but is good at all HET rooms).

All in all it's good to know that I can register next time I go down instead of the morning of Event #1. Thanks for the info.
