I would think you are in the draw (if there is one as a result of the season ticket holders oversubscribing).

Talking to a few fellow season ticket holders last year. It sounds like pretty much every season ticket holder who applys gets in. A bunch that I talked to had been every year.

Sweet. That is good news. Anyone know how many seats are at this tournament? I'm guessing 100

The lady I talked to at the Flames office said it was 350.

I cannot remember how much they said they made for charity last year, but for some reason $400K comes to mind - which means that there were a lot of rebuys.

they do it in the ball room, not the regular poker room.

If I were you I wouldn't have posted Rollie's reply in a public forum though. Now the door has opened for a landslide of similar type requests.

It was pretty tight between tables. They also use another part of the casino for the reception and intermission.

I bailed. If it weren't a rebuy, I would have been in for sure. Good luck and be sure to post your experiences afterwards.

You said it was $200 for rebuys? Is that for like the first 30 minutes or even longer? I want to bring only $400

So the tournament starts at 3pm and registration is at 2pm. I'm going alone so I don't really want to hang by myself as I plan to come right at 2pm and soak it all in.

Anyone want to be my friend for the day?

So you guys are making me go to this by myself? No one wants to hang with me before the tournament starts?

Is this going to be a junior high flashback for me!?!?!?!?
