Not yet.

Nice. If the structure/rake is decent I'll probably play a few Tuesday tournaments over the summer.

Just called the poker room. they just announced this yesterday and got the signage for it today. First tournament is this Sunday.
-
Sundays - Buy in is $535 - Starting stack $7500 - blinds start at 50 / 100 - 30 minute levels. Re-buys for first 4 levels
-
Tuesdays - Buy in is $165 - Same structure as above
-
Maximum number of entries is 150 (15 tables)
-
There will be daily satellites for the $535 - $120 buy-ins (single table of 10 players)- top 2 get a ticket- didn't get the structure of the satty but I would think its similar to Winter Classic sattys

If that is the same structure for the 165 as the 550 that would be great, especially for a casino, but I'm guessing the rake would be prohibitive if that is the case.

That is real low... both of them.... I hope there isn't some catch we're missing, like 5 min blinds, lol

It's amazing their adding tournaments. I'm there this weekend but unfortunately leaving Sunday afternoon. Would love to play it. Would be interested in knowing what the field composition is like if anyone plays.

A question I have, probably not the right place but, does Fallsview/Niagara validate overnight parking with several hours or poker play? Trying to avoid the outrageous parking fees at the hotel.

I've stayed at the hotels across from Fallsview and haven't had issues with having to pay with minimal play. But haven't been at Niagara but imagine it's the same system

We are staying across the street from Fallsview. But the poker room is now at Niagara and will be playing there. Are they still considered the same if I park at one and play at another?

sn1perb0y;409448 wrotedo you know at what time does it start, are you going this week dj?

They start at 12:30pm, registration starts at 12:00pm -

Unfortunately I cannot attend this weekend but will be going to as many as I can. Will probably try the satties during the week, after work to get in.

When I get a chance I will go down on a Tuesday and see what the structure of that one is..Really hard to believe it's the same structure as the $535.

They are the same. Just get a player's ard if you don't have one and use it when you play. Even minimal play will cover parking at both casinos.

^ thanks. I have a card. Haven't ever used it though. Do I hand it to the brush desk when first sitting down, or when leaving, how does that all work?

For poker, you give it to the dealer.
