So far I'm still trying to find out when (what day) exactly it is, the 1st or the 2nd, and just how many seats they are awarding in this event.

I don't see this anywhere on that page.

This link will probably work better:

I've booked this, just because it gives me an excuse to go back and play live NL in the WSOP area (gotta love that 2/5 NL), making the satellite basically a freeroll.

There's really no info about this 'River of Dreams' satellite on their website. I've sent in a request for more info to the Harrahs customer service department, but who knows when/what I'll hear back.

It's there at the bottom of the page, but here is a more direct link (Zpin, fyi that link you posted, I suspect is keyed to your personal account so you might want to edit it):

$250 sounds really cheap for this.

[CincyLady]

They are trying to get bodies in there the few days before the 4th of July is my guess.

Since most times a spouse or loved one comes with that is NOT into poker, I suspect it's a ploy to get those out on the floor playing the slots.

[CincyLady]

Found out from a friend that it looks like that the actual tourney will be held on July 2nd, but not sure of the time.

Still trying to find out how many seats will be awarded for this.

Anyone want to hazard a guess as to whether you can sell a seat you win in this thing?

[CincyLady]

I will ask them when they return my voice mail message to answer my other questions. I will say this though, if you booked it for 4 nights, July 1st through July 5th, the total package is just under 400 bucks then (with the extra two nights that is). That's less than 100 bucks a night which is way cheaper than they normally charge at the Rio, so it's still a pretty good deal if you ask me.

Results? Or is it LOL to expect Harrah's to return a phone call.
