Actually, that part's not true. It's only the block of rooms at the special poker rate, that are fully booked. [/ QUOTE ] Sorry I wasn't clear, but that's what I meant. I thought the implication was obvious. Regular room rates are $269+ on the weekends, IIRC. |

Re: Gulf Coast Poker Championship (WPT)
Well, that was easy. I was trying to decide, but now my decision is obvious. Same dates, more events spread. I'm going to the Grand Tunica! The WSOP Circuit August 29th to September 13th!

Sometimes I even get my room for free that way. |

Re: Gulf Coast Poker Championship (WPT)
Just a heads up for those of you planning to go to the Beau. Upon arrival, make sure you get a players card. They will be required for tournament registration. Also, if you plan on using internet service, bring an ethernet cable with you.

Upon arrival, make sure you get a players card. [/ QUOTE ] This is what Donna said when I booked too but the 'system' was down so she couldn't check my name or apply for a card for me. I have a card from the MGM Grand Poker Room in LV...is that the same card? Wasn't sure if the 'poker room' card was separate/different than a regular player's card. |
