    ok, done. We can work out the details later. I may play the Aria tournament as a warm up on the Weds.

    1pm or 7pm? We fly in that day and have no plans, but not sure if I want to fly and play the same day. I'll play it by ear.

    probably the early event as I want to avoid getting into the late hours. You can come cheer me on to victory :) Like to ideally keep the Friday/Sat nights open for cash games.
  • An opportunity came up for me to go on the cheap-cheap. Arriving Sunday Oct.2 10:15pm returning Thursday Oct.6 2:30pm. Air Canada from Toronto. Staying at the Planet Hollywood with Eduardo (he's played at AJ's, the Westside, and Buzzards). Likely doing the mid-day tourneys Mon, Tues, Wed. So let's meet up one evening! The only face I think I know is Johnnie's.

    You will probably find me at the Venetian playing cash on the Sunday night. Fly out Monday morning. Have a great time in any case if we don't meet up. What's the fare like on AC?
  • read somewhere that the Venetian 7pm tournaments are now rebuy. Any idea if this is the case for the other daily tournaments?

    Was $639.00. Had come down a little. But I have travel points on my Scotia Visa that paid for most of it. PM me your cell. Johnnie - can you PM me yours also??

    PM me yours please. I won't have my phone on me, as we have Verizon cells for Las Vegas. (The where $20 at Target, way cheaper then getting hosed by Bell Canada). I will try to find the number.

    I will however have my computer with me, so you can at least post or PM me and let me know where you are.

    The Venetian website doesn't say the 7pm is a re-buy.

    Rules and Payouts for Poker Room at The Venetian - Resort, Hotel, Casino.

    Probably playing the noon tourney on the Monday.
  • It's a re-entry I believe.

    The Bellagio 2pm dailies have re-entrys and registration open for 8 levels!! according to their website. Can that be a typo??

    No, I checked on AVP. It's true.

    can you PM me details on this as I am with Telus and always get screwed when in the US. I don't mind buying a local phone if I can save on texts mainly.

    btw, likely not staying at Rio as wifey is coming until Sat. and she has higher standards than me.

    Can't recall whether we bought them at Target or Walmart, but lots of places have them at $20. or less with enough minutes for a whole week. If you need more you just buy top up cards. Great deal, we all bought them there last Sept.

    lol, don't they all?

    We got them at Target, but like Jeff said they are available almost anywhere. It was $10 for the card, $10 for phone. When you called another Verizon phone, it deducted .99c from your card, but you could call any Verizon phone for free all day. Super handy! We didn't text each other, so I don't remember the cost there. I don't think we used the phones to make any local/LD calls either, again I don't recall the price for that either. I'm sure Moose will remember.

    Since you're not staying at the Rio, I guess we'll hook up on the Strip then.
  • Alot of the dailys are now re-entry. I believe Venetian and area are both 1 re-entry
  • 4 week countdown!
  • pokerJAH wrote: »
    I guess I might see you somewhere along the way, maybe on the Rio shuttle :)

    Looks like I won't be staying at the Rio after all. Moving to the Venetian for the Tues/Weds now, then TI for the remainder. Plan to get the poker rate for the Tues night and have an offer for the Weds.

    Sorry Jim, looks like I might have someone taking my room at Monte Carlo, if that changes I'll let you know.

    Also just got a Caesar's Room for comp'd for the Wednesday just so I have a place to freshen up and what not before my red-eye flight back

    No problem, I can slum at Palazzo (went with this hotel instead of Venetian). Thanks for the offer in any case.
  • John bring your phone on Sat so I can take it to the US.

    If you could that would be great, or I'll come leave it with somebody at Buzzzards, although I can't make it :(

    That works too, then Moose can load all 3 with new minutes.

    I guess you're not coming with us then, Jeff?
  • I'm going to call Bally's to make reservations for our party of 5 at Sterling Buffet. Let me know if anybody else wants to join us to blow $100 each.
  • Anyone wanna do a group lunch/dinner with me when I get in?

    Wicked Spoons Buffet at Cosmopolitan was pretty awesome

    The Sunday morning. Your flight arrives Sunday evening right? We can always hit Ellis Island for the BBQ.

    I've lost track of your arrival time. If we're available, I'm sure something could be worked out.
