Default Re: Best daily Vegas tournament for low rollers?? (under 70.00 entry

Stratosphere gets my vote, I've played in two of them, chopped 3 way once and placed the 3rd in another. The Sunday night one I played had 45 people, but the Saturday afternoon one only had 27, didn't make sense to me.

The structure is decent (4K in chips, 20 min rounds), fields are weak and they take less juice when compared to PH and Sahara.

Have fun,
-Ron

All 3 of these are decent so based on your location on the strip each day hit one or more of these:

South Strip - Planet Hollywood
Mid Strip - Treasure Island
North Strip - Sahara

Strong agreement on all three.

I'm going to be in Vegas all this week and next week. I'm wondering where the best daily low entry fee tournament is held at. I have a car so it can be anywhere in town. I read that Saraha and Planet Hollwood are the best, but I'm wondering if anyone knows somewhere else. I'm pretty much looking for a decent structure. I know for 70 bucks the casino is racing to kick you out, but I'm guessing some places are better then others.

Ill give you the answer your looking for since no one seems to have a CLUE that there is a $30 at the Luxor atleast once a day (in the am).

Yes I know certain poker rooms have low buy-in tournaments but the structure and starting chip stacks suck.. From doing some research, it looks like PH, TI, Sahara and the Strat have the best low limit tournaments..

My wife and I are going the week of December 10 and we're looking for the exact same thing, so if you wouldn't mind sharing your experiences when you get back, I'd really appreciate it.

Last summer i played 4 tourneys at the STRATOSPHERE...there are 4 a day..2 of them are 30 plus 20 add on or rebuy...and 2 of them are 50 plus one 40 add on or rebuy..stucture was ok...Play was horrendous.. i played the 50 plus 40 and never added on or rebought because i was chipped up from the awful play...(its not a good investment mathematically a lot of the times cause the pool usually gets chopped) chopped 3 out of the 4 tourneys for an average of 500 each..

The IP has a daily noon for 60 and you get 3000 in chips. Then at 8pm they have a 80 with $10 bountys.3000 starting chips as well. Usually 40 players for both tourneys on fri,sat, and sunday. 20-30 on weekdays. Really cool tourney. Very beatable.Mostly all tourist. Not saying tourist are bad players. You no what i Mean.

I played this tournament, but it only had 10 people both times I played. The players were horrible. I played it twice, bubbled once after getting sucked out twice by the same guy. The second one, I was down to 1500 chips with 4 left (2 paid), and 500/1000 blinds and UTG. Two guys had about 7k each and another guy had like 3500. The idiots all got all in, and the donk with the biggest stack sucked out against both of them. I managed to come back and win being down 19000 to 1000. It was pretty bad, and if you just want to screw around and be done in 2 hours its a decent tournament.

From my experience Sahara generally has more players/tourney than PH and TI so you stand to win more, but I've always experienced better floor/dealers at PH/TI as well as better rooms, which as a low stakes recreational player, goes a long way in my decision making.

But he asked for the best tournaments, and the Luxor tournaments are very bad. Even for 30 dollars.

I like the Stratosphere, Sahara and TI. Good tournaments to play for under 70.
