Also not happy San Diego, one of the stops every year since the circuit began, has been removed in favor of a second stop in LA. If it is just about having the biggest turnout, they should rename the event and just play them all wherever they can get the biggest numbers. But this thing is supposed to be a Circuit!

Not happy with the change.
Re entry had twice the field and 6max had 50% more entries. Not quite the same field. Didn't bother to look at the other numbers, assume same results. Although the buyins were bigger in la last year.

Yeah, wish Biloxi was still on the schedule too, but numbers were not that good (although it seemed to be getting better). Biloxi can draw the players as the Beau has proven, but no good Caesar's property in Biloxi anymore (and none with a poker room). IP didn't do much for advertisement or maybe the location would've done better.

Fwiw i play at the shoe in CB and it's a great stop. Close to the airport with shuttles to alot of hotels within walking distance and a comfortable room for cash games. Highly encourage people to think about traveling for it.

Thinking of playing the main event at Foxwoods on August 15th. Anyone know how to get a room at the hotel without spending over $500 a night?

San Diego sucks and everyone knows it, closest hotel besides casinos $300 a night is over 45 minutes away and small fields, common sense to add another LA stop that will not have any risk compared to SD

Why there is no thread for Foxwoods? It starts in 2 weeks. Are fields really small for this event?

I can remember when the Ip was running well attended daily tourneys, and always drew pretty good numbers for their series. over the last few years, they moved the poker room twice, stopped advertising tourneys, and have stopped running daily tourneys. The circuit stops were drawing smaller number than some of the daily tourneys running at the Beau.

I would ask regular players at the Beau if they were going to play the Ip series, and most said no. So with most of the locals not even supporting the circuit stops whether WPT or WSOP, I'm not surprised this event is off the schedule. Probably the casino saw the numbers and chose not to pay the $150K to host the event.

On another note, the Ip or who ever they contracted with to run the events couldn't even get the schedules correct on their own web site. I'm local, and showed up on time for an event only to find it already started. Go back the next year, same thing happened. Two years in a row either the WPT or WSOP stops had wrong times on the IP web site for some events.

Trying to support the tourneys, I show up about an hour early for a Saturday non circuit tourney, the poker manager tells me they probably won't have a enough players for a tourney. I sit at a cash table, while waiting, and see 3 or 4 players also turned away who came to play the tourney.

Wasn't long after that the Ip just stopped running daily tourneys. Several years ago they would get 7 or 8 tables for a Saturday tourney.

They stopped advertising, didn't offer a GT, and the Beau did both and consolidated the player pool by running a better room.

And while we are on the topic of releasing schedules, for the love of god, why can't all the schedules for all of the stops be released now??? You know the dates and location... how hard is it to come up with a schedule 3, 6 or 9 months in advance? I mean seriously, whoever runs these events has no business sense whatsoever. Putting out a schedule 9 months in advance can only help attendance. I certainly would book flights when they go on sale and schedule days off to travel to other stops that I wouldn't be able to attend at the last minute. Some of us have jobs and also don't want to pay $500 for an airline ticket when we could have got that same ticket 3 months prior for $200 when it was on sale. Geez. Not everyone who plays these events are circuit grinders. Can someone with a brain at the WSOP have some forward thinking on this?

I'm sure this has been brought up a zillion times before and nothing will get done this time but it's worth another shot.
