I'm in, as noted.

For anyone worried about the structure, don't. I will work with Suzzer to create a good structure that will allow plenty of play early. The WSOP nightly satellites lasted 8 hours with 50-100 players. We can certainly start a 30 player tournament at noon and get plenty of play in with ample time for an after-party.

It will be a great time.

OK never mind my previous comment, I'm willing to trust Irieguy 100% with the structure. But I still like my idea of relatively low buyin but tons o' rebuys, it's "da bomb" kids. And no HORSEcrap. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Problem with lots of rebuys is we don't know how many chips there will be, so it's hard to budget time. No one (I think) wants to be playing a 15-hour marathon.

Eh, just keep doubling the blinds in the later rounds and it won't matter.

Just FYI. If we get a mad rush on this thing, then obviously the people Irie and/or I know personally will get first precedence. But it's certainly cool to have some new faces. So we'll have to see how it plays out.

There will be very concrete dates for getting the cover charge and later, the MTT buyin to me (or perhaps someone everyone trusts unconditionally like lacky for the buyins). I didn't want to do the buyins ahead of time orginally, but I've been convinced that for security reasons it would be a good idea.

Default Re: STTF - Hotel California MTT Holiday Blowout -preliminary interest list

oops, didnt realize there was new thread, I just posted this in the old one:

Nice, I need a reason to get back to LA, this sounds like a lot of fun!! 1k MTT, great idea. I will also be in vegas for five diamond, so, Craig, save me a spot somewhere in the smoking section. I've been to body shop before and its great! I'm pretty sure they don't have food there/I wouldnt wanna eat there. Kind of small, pretty sure they don't sell liquor, but the The girls are very legit

I will not go if its not deluxe, comm'on.


*Reply if u remember going to body shop with me, I dont remeber who I was with. I'm 99% Sass was involved.

Oh, quick note...

I will ship the scrippas for the party in from Vegas. They will ride on the PartyBus from Vegas to LA.

Obviously this is an STTF party so there will be lap artists, but they cost money of course so I just wanted to mention that the entry fee will probably be a hundo or so more than whatever Suzzer is estimating.

Irieguy

PS: I am holding spots on the PartyBus for SFB, Usher, Apathy, Bones, TravestyFund, Raptor and Durrr since i'm 99% sure they'll all come. If anyone else wants an early spot held for them let me know. 35' RV is the likely vehicle. Also we need a sober pilot, so the passengers will ship a round-trip ticket to LV for the first serious dude who offers to drive us there and back without drinking. Yugo?

Irie,

I think you, bones and usher are the only dudes that would need to get back to Vegas afterwards?
