Hi Ladies!

While the main meetup will of course be at the 2+2 Party at the Wynn on July 7th, I wanted to suggest a get together the night before the ladies' event for dinner at the Cosmopolitan's Buffet: The Wicked Spoon at 7PM on June 30th.



I think dinner is around $30 per person (+Drinks, tax, and tip). This is by far my favorite buffett on the Strip, and the casino has a slightly girly flair that I think will make for fun times and photo ops (by the giant high-heeled shoes imo). Maybe we can all go and register for the event at the Rio afterwards, or have a drink at the Chandelier bar. TWSS Rally FTW!

Hope to see all you ladies (and our beloved male mods, + Protential) there!

did somebody say buffettttttttttt?

cosmo's the best game in town, imo. i will definitely be there with bells on to meet you fine ladies.

my fail-proof buffet strategy: eat as much as physically possible before your brain has time to tell your stomach that it's full.

A buffet is a terrible place to schedule a meet up like this. Everyone is constantly getting up and leaving the table so conversation at buffets is usually subpar.

I'm not really a tournament player and I'm not planning on playing the ladies' event.

But I'd love to come "carb load" with all of you at the Cosmo!

Sign me up!

I disagree. A buffet is actually a good place to meet up in that people can hang out for a while without feeling pressure to give up their table, they can take as long as they want between courses, the check is easier to divide since everyone just needs to pay for their drinks/tips after paying for food before eating, people can show up late without it delaying anyone, and it is much easier to move around/change seats in order to talk to everyone than it would be at a restaurant.

Plus, the Cosmo buffet is pretty posh, I've never waited in line for more than 5 minutes, and I <3 the food.

Feel free to pass on it if you think my idea is "terrible," or if a lot of people would rather have it somewhere else then of course let's talk about that.

Hooray for Katie75013, redhat_jane, JMurder3, and Lepoppet-- really looking forward to meeting new faces and seeing the ones I already <3!

I was thinking it was a great idea to have it at a buffet, because I'm a really picky eater and everyone is going to find something they like. And yeah, people are getting up, but it's not like you can't get back to your conversation when you get back, or talk to other people.

But I'm not sure I want to commit because I suck at planning so far in advance. Can I give a tentative yes?

If Lana is at 1500 ft, I vote for liquid dinner on the rail instead.

So, I just remembered that I am playing the $1,500 on the 28th, so there is some small chance that I'll miss this. But that would be day 3, so if I was still in it would likely mean FT.

Ahhh! I'm missing it. Flying late because I have a huge presentation this afternoon. Anyone wanna do something similar the first night of the tournament? I'm flying myself, so it would be nice to have someone to chat with during dinner breaks.
