If you don't have a car and have to take a taxi, I'd imagine you need to be prepared to pay quite a bit going either place as neither are too close to Crown Center.

Thanks. I took city transit out to Harrahs last time and a cab back. The cab ride was $25ish.

Sounds like he doesn't have a car though, and Hollywood is 10 miles further away than Harrah's.

Around here, we call them buses.

Last time I played at Harrah's there was an extremely talkative, plumpish but cute, white girl in a Mussad T-shirt, playing way too loose. Is she a shark or a fish? Just curious....

Depends on if you're doing the devouring or she is.

I know of whom you speak. My GOD she just won't shut up - EVER. I felted her one night and after she walked away a guy on the other side of the table said, "You deserve a trophy for that."
I did too cause she almost had me tilted until I stuck my earphones in and went as loud as I could and settled down.

Definitely a fish just playing her hand.

that is every girl in Kansas City. props to you for finding one that was semi-cute

oh yeah! I know who you are talking about. She tells everyone that she is in medschool at UMKC.

wtf dude??? She is NOT cute. and she is NOT plumpish. she is OBESE.

as far as her play goes. definately first level player. doesn't pay that much attention to position. doesn't three bet light. weak semi-bluffs. overcelebration over winning routine pots.

she is as exactly as she appears. a socially deficient fat girl who finally got a taste of attention at the poker table... and now won't shut up.

any hollywood regs here?

I am not a "reg", but I play 2/5 or sometimes 5/10 probably 2 to 3 times a month there. Mainly play online but would like to get up there more if the GF would let me. Plan on being there 18th-22nd, hopefully everyday, as I would imagine that Nascar race will bring in alot of good traffic.

Did you here the new promotion at Hollywood? The top 20 players who put in the most poker time each month for 5 months get entry into a tournament, where the top 8 get seats in Vegas at a $2500 tournament. And the good news is once you are registered you can't qualify again, so it's essentially the top 100 people get a seat in the satellite.

Pretty cool imo

Can anyone tell me what the structure is like for the Harrahs KC Saturday deepstack tournament?

I see that you get T10,000 starting and blinds are 20 minutes. I wondered if anyone knew the blind structure?

thanks

I'll pick up a flyer from Harrahs and post it later on today.

Thanks Doc!

Things have come up and if I am even able to get to Harrahs today, it's going to be around midnight.

Didn't make it to Harrah's but I will go sometime this weekend, get a flyer, and post the structure of the Saturday deepstack.

no problem Doc. I won't be going down that way for a while.
