Wsop 2019
So who is planning on heading down to Vegas this year for WSOP?
As usual, I am trying to convince the wife to let me go. For those who are considering going, I'm really interested in how and where you are looking for flights/hotels and what, if any, deals are available. June 28th would be the earliest day I can head down and there are still a few possible tournaments that I could play in for $1500 or under. Basically, I'm looking at dates between June 28 to July 10 to fly down.
I haven't been able to find anything less than around $450 per person for flights not including hotel. I feel that it's possible to get better deals than that though. Any help/suggestions?

It's a possibility I could get those days off. Exams are technically over on the 26th. I'd have to get all my marks in that day though.
Probably not possible. I have to submit all marked exams to the office. They store them away for a year (or two maybe). I don't know if they'd let me hold onto them until I come back.
Nevermind the Vegas trip... we need to get this poor man into a support group!
Host on a Saturday.
I am hosting on Saturday
Yeah I know. Just busy that day otherwise I'd be there.
Always.
P.S. - any of you planning on joining me for Day 4?
What do you guys think of this $1000 "Mini Main Event?" I kind of like that it's only 2 days long and has no re-entry.
July 1st, 60K Chips... Main event structure but with 30 min levels.
Going over the schedule I like Event 12 right now, i love bounty events and it a 1 day which I like...would an event like this turn into bingo though?

Anyone have car rental suggestions? GF wants to rent one to drive to shopping while I play poker. Guess I better win something.
Hamilton airport parking deal
Just be aware that on site airport parking is $15 per day or $65. for 7 days. The walk is very short into the terminal.. Having used it twice I really see no advantage to offsite parking and waiting for delivery or pickup.. 200' would be about the maximum I have walked to the terminal.
So what you are saying is that my link is cheaper than anything but exactly a 7 day trip because after 7 days Hamilton goes back to charging you $15 for each additional day
Correct, but what I am saying is Hamilton is not like any of the other airports that we normally frequent like Toronto or Detroit where the difference is huge. Have you ever been there? Hamilton airport is compact, onsite parking is real close and convenient, just not worth parking offsite unless you were going for a couple of weeks or more.. In my case, 8 days I will pay $80. for 8 days, exactly the same as the offsite coupon and even then the way I read it I would have to print off 8 vouchers and go through the hassle of waiting... No thanks, I'm tight (and cheap) but not that cheap..
