Hi everyone,

Have been working on the structures the last two days and making a few minor tweaks here and there that I think everyone will like. (I Hope).

Once they are completed I will post them here.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask

Chris

Looking forward to this one.

That Schedule link isnt working for me, not sure about anyone else but here appears to be an alternate link:

Try this link.http://www.grandsierraresort.com/cas...no-floor/poker Click on the tournament schedule link when you get there. Hopefully the structures will be posted soon but if there are any you would like to see just let me know.

Just an FYI from a local...

GSR has been undergoing some renovations, and it's now the Poker Room's turn. They have completely gutted the old room, and are re-building it in the old location. They have a temporary room outside the old one, right next to the ticket counter.

I'm not sure on what changes will be made, or when it will be done. But based on how slow the work seems to be going, I would say that Labor Day looks to be a good target.

Chris-

Let me know when you get the structures posted, flights to reno are cheap and the hotel rates are awesome, so pretty good chance I come out for this. Never been to reno before I assume its easy to cab it from the airport to the hotel?

Rob

I sent the structures to the GSR to post on the website on Wednesday so hopefully they will be posted soon. Are there any you would like to see now before they get posted?

Yes, easy cab ride to the Gsr. Only about 5-10 minutes away and usually cost arount $10. There are also free shuttle service from the airport which I believe runs on the 15 and 45 of the hour. If not its on the top and 30 of the hour.

Chris

No worries I can wait till they are posted. Shuttle is cool too looking forward to it... Silly question but say you win the main event, can you get funds wired? Don't really want to fly with a ton of money stuffed in my pockets lol....

(had an account, but forgot the name)

I'm going to be going to this series for my 21st birthday to have some fun. Can't wait and hope to see you all there.

Curious about the Main Event structure. Thanks.

Forgot to mention this. I have been told it should be done by this Thursday/Friday at the latest. The poker room is doing a total remodel. It will have a butlers pantry with soda, soup and sandwiches available to all.

The Gsr also have the best Live comp rate in Reno with $2 an hour for every hour you play with no cap. You can use the comps at every GSR owned outlet and use them even to pay for your room as far as I know. You also get 2% back on your players card for every tournament you play. So if you play $300 buy-in you get six on your card up to $20 if you play the main event.

Should be a great tourney with Deepstacks Poker tour coming into town. I know that Matt Affleck has confirmed coming and other names to come. When I get the info on other players I will post the info here.
