Has anyone played this tourney? I am headed to Vegas next week and considering this as an option. I think it is 30 minute levels and $8000 starting chips.
I stole this off allvegaspoker.com. Not too bad for a $120 + $20

It's probably one of the best values around. Note they set out extra stacks for late comers and blind them off for one hour, then they remove the stacks but you can still buyin up to 2 hours late and you will get a full stack. It's wierd I know. A lot of the locals will buyin late so the tourney is not as long and come in with a full stack and pick on the short stacks.
Also the 7 pm tourney now has the exact same structure as the 1 pm tourney.
