Yeah, they have rails set up for the spectators including one non tv feature table right next to the rail for people to watch.

During the main event there are a few places to watch the tournament and the final table will be broadcast live in the poker room with awesome commentary (Me:-) but no hole cards.

Just told my family that I'm leaving them in Sydney so I can play at least the first event. The hotel is selling out quickly.

Looks like you can buy in with a credit card. I assume this is treated like a cash advance. I'm wondering if I can have them charge more than the buy in (in an attempt to transfer a bankroll to the casino) This would be similar to wiring money- I'd just have to make the credit card payment quickly to avoid being raped with usury charges.

Any thoughts? If not, what is the best way to get my USD bankroll to Melbourne?

I have finally spoken to the casino. They faxed me the bank wire instructions and opened a Crown Club Account for me. Now, each week I transfer money (to stay below the 10K) to the casino. When I arrive I show ID and the money is released to me. My bank doesn't charge me for wire transfers, though other banks charge between $20-$40 per wire. Will also take a few thousand in AUS to get started, since I arrive a couple of hours before the event I want to play in. Good luck.

Note to Matt: If Maryann will be there with you, I would love to take you guys to Nobu one night.

So if Maryann is not there NO NOBU.....WTF??????

Guess I better spring for the $3,000 air ticket, her shopping spree, and spa packages so I can get a free dinner.

Yes she will be there [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
