Default Buying in with credit card

Going to play in the Bellagio Cup and hopefully a couple of $1,500 WSOP events. Can i buy-in using my Amex when I get there? I've always just paid cash when i play in tourneys. Possibly a dumb question.

I do no THINK you can. Thought it would be nice for the points/miles. Maybe you could use those checks that your (or at least my) credit card company seems to send every month.

Round Trip Airline ticket to Vegas $600
Buy in to the WS Main Event 11K
Hotel Room/Food for the week $2k
Cool WSOP Shirt $55

Knowing that you will be paying this off for 3 years @ 22% annual interest because you used Credit card as your backer.

Foolish......

Wanted to use the AMEX for convenience MrFizzbin. In terms of amounts that sounds like a standard monthly AMEX bill for me, which i pay off promptly every month. Thanks for your concern though.
