Re: Winstar
I played it. I honestly dont rem the amount of starting chips. I think it was 4K with 30 min levels, very abrupt increases, they miss a lot of levels. overall IMO there are so many other BETTER tournys to play.

Re: Winstar
Oklahoma, one hour north of dallas. One of the only options for close poker where I'm from(west texas). The tourney has 3 day ones, 23,24,25 of aug, thur/fri/sat, and day 2(final day) on sunday. $1100 buyin, usually cash game action is heightened during this time, last year i think raymer was there and maybe some other pros

Re: Winstar
Just want to add my two cents about Winstar;
[censored] Winstar. Their rake is too high, they dont comp drinks, I got stiffed by a waitress and the floor didn't do a damned thing. They have a bad beat jackpot that they rake from the [censored] small blind. When they were running sattelites for their Sunday $300 tourney, they were $50 sats, nine man tables, one seat awarded, no cash for first/second, i.e., charging 30% juice on a sattelite that probably has an hour of play to it. I dont play there anymore. I can play for the same rake in Dallas and get free food and drink, and not have to drive 150 miles roundtrip to do it. I wish poker players would boycott rooms that dont give us a fair shake. The problem is that it's hard to notice, but it's egregious. You might not notice $1 per pot, or an extra $10 per sattelite, but they're doing it to hundreds of players every day. [censored] Winstar.

[/ QUOTE ] Curious that your nick is sort of like the name of a famed underground room in Dallas... First, I dunno what drinks the room should be comping you. Want a free Pepsi? Go to the machine and there you go. They still don't serve alcohol yet, so I don't know what you were doing, unless you mean Red Bull. Second, the previous sats were a joke - the current batch has cleared that up. They're 10 handed 100+10 to an 1000+100 tourney. So there's no juice on the sats, they just ride the float, I guess.
