Spoke to one of the dealers today and he mentioned there were 6 twenty minute rounds, and 10000 in chips. I dont believe the 10000 in chips!

You do receive 10k in chips with blinds starting at 100-200. The only thing I don't like is it ends after 6 blind levels, but they are 20 mintues long, so maybe that won't be a problem.

Cool. A starting stack of 20 times the big blind is not too bad. And the 20 minute levels are awesome compared to the 10 minute ones at the HPT event. Has a schedule been posted for when the "satellites" will be offered? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

If 10 of you want to come here right now I will have one [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] I would expect to see more of them as it gets closer to the date.

How about two of us and the rest comprised of random frisky fishy types? Ha, ha. Just kidding. It would be bad to suggest any shenannigans. I am usually there Thursday and Sundays so I will holla if I bust our early. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

So $400 for the winner and $100 for the house? Or am I missing something?

[/ QUOTE ]

It is $400 for the winner, $10 for the bad beat and $90 for the casino. $90 for something scheduled to take 2 hours seems very reasonable to me.

Does any of the casino portion go to the awesome dealers? Or do players that "win seats" need to tip extra? Like 5% or whatever?

My understanding it is illegal to withhold a portion of the prize pool for the dealers in Colorado (so no).

So at the end of two hours the chip leader gets the prize?

There is a seperate tournament bad beat jackpot. $1 from every touranment entry goes into it.

Yes. Similiar to the Nitro and the Niner. I am hoping with two hours of play they end before that.
