    With 20+ players (150k on the table) this could easily go a lot longer I think.

    Blinds will be 1000-2000 at 1:50 according to your schedule. Although I have been wrong before...

    We could actually give away 3 seats with a prize pool of $3240.

    We will discuss this amongst all players at game time.

    I like this. How much travel money do the winners really need. Fallsview is only an hour or so away.
  • Yeah hotel $ for 1 night = $100ish. If were short by a couple players to give away 3 seats I wouldn't mind adding to the buyin as well.

    What he said.
  • It costs me $35.00 there and back. A real Cheap hotel OFF SEASON in the falls is about $150.00. But maybe they will have a rate for players like they did during the WPT events in the past.
  • We have dropped down to 25 confirmed players

    A cheap motel is only like $80 to $100
