I had read that the tag team tournament at the Orleans on the 25th at 11 was just ladies but apparently it is one of the few LIPS series tournaments that men are welcome. Sounds real interesting. The fact that it is open means men are allowed without going in drag. ;)

This is the ever popular Tag Team Switch Tournament! Two partnered players play on two separate stacks – unless one gets knocked out. Then you Tag Team one stack until eliminated… even if it’s all the way to 1st place! (Team members may re-buy up until the first break)
Tag Team Switch Rules
1. Each player of the tag team receives a starting chip stack at separate tables.
2. When "Switch" is called on demand of Tournament Director, each player must stop play immediately (even if it's mid-hand) and has one minute to assume the seat of their teammates table.
3. If one player of the team is eliminated, both teammates play off of the remaining player's chip stack upon the "Switch" demand.
4. A team is eliminated from the tournament when both teammates have no remaining chips.
5. A team may re-enter the tournament only if both teammates are eliminated and it's still within the re-entry time frame.
6. If there are teammates going into the final table, the chip stacks are combined and the switch goes from there.
