They said that if you're playing in any of the tournaments that you're pretty much guaranteed to get a room at the poker rate (80/night). They have LOTS of rooms left at the poker rate that are only for tournament players.

EDIT: Also they're expected about 300 for the main event which makes first prize 300,000 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Isn't the main event the 5k?

Here's an FYI for those of you heading out there. Breaking news from the TS

"As part of our continuing efforts to enhance your resort experience,
we are working with the New York State government regarding the
serving of alcohol at Turning Stone Resort & Casino.
Our hope, and plan, is to allow full service of alcohol for our guests
at each of our facilities in the near future.
While our discussions with the State are underway, we must request
that our guests not bring alcoholic beverages into Turning Stone.
We believe this policy of not permitting alcoholic beverages onto
our premises provides us an opportunity to reach an agreement with
the State in a way that ultimately results in the best resort experience.
Thank you for your patience and understanding, and for your
cooperation during this transition period."

Of course, they posted it on the main page as a 12MB PDF...so if you're interested in the huge picture backround and big font "To Serve You Better...", here it is. http://www.turningstone.com/info/alcohol.pdf

tower >>>>> hotel

same rate with poker rate

[/ QUOTE ]

I reserved my room tonight and they said they only offered poker rate in the hotel for this tournament. The last time I went in March I got the tower at poker rate, but according to them it isn't offered this time around.

GRRRR I hope this isn't the work of you know whom that I will not name in May....
