That is next...hopefully by end of the week.

What is the difference if any between stars and stripes team and tag team switch?

Ugh, appreciate the time you put into looking at this. Will update by tomorrow.

This event is with a vendor and they are charging us to host the tournament

I know I am late to the party, and you probably aren't doing any more editing, but would have loved to see a 1k PLO with maybe a 50k or even 100k guarantee. I think if it were scheduled around the the time of the $500 wsop rebuy, the numbers would be great. Great schedule though!

I'll probably play the Ultimate with its structure and guarantee, see how that goes, but that's probably all I'll have on my starting plan.

5/29 11am 1G Quantum Reload NLH - Day 2 $900 + $100

+

6/19 11am 47G Quantum Reload NLH - Day 2 $1700 + $100

How do these work? If you buy directly into Day 2 at this premium how many chips do you get? How many big blinds would you start with?

Chris,

This question is related to logistics. Will you have more cashier stations open for registration? Can you register for events at the regular casino cage?

50 BBs

Long story short is that the percentage that qualify for each flight listed are ITM. They bag and tag when that percentage left remains. Then on day 2 players may still buy in for the higher price and get 50 BBs. Think of day 2 as a completely separate tourney. You have your day 1 qualifiers plus the day 2 entries. Then the top 33% on day 2 are ITM and we play to a winner.

Will have at least 5 banks for reg for big events on the Mezz plus 2 additional windows in the main poker room. We could even look at more banks for the feature events. We hate lines as much as you. As of now the main bank can't reg for poker events.

Similar setup as last year? All the tables in the Mezzanine? Any better chairs?

With all these venues doing all these multiflight events and with day 2 restarts, it will be interesting to see where people go.

Almost feels like it's too crowded but I hope you guys get the numbers you are looking for.

Can we buy in early in the tournament area, as in come the night before and register for events the next day? Can we buy in 24-7 in the tournament area for ANY tournament once the series starts like WSOP does? This would be great!

It was unfortunate that I skipped one of your events last year due to the insane line.

Looks like a good schedule. Thanks for keeping us all in the loop and listening to feedback!

Ahh, yes we will have 24-7 reg!

Great.
Is the "ININJA Championship" anything special or different or just a standard tournament where you must dress like a ninja in order to play?

Thanks again for your responsiveness, Chris. Remember, you're going to catch some flak on here no matter what you do. All players have personal preferences on tournaments, not to mention unique schedules for trips during WSOP, and it is literally impossible for you to make everyone happy. We all appreciate your willingness to consider feedback. But don't assume that because someone jumps in your sh.. about a particular event on these forums that they are necessarily correct or speak for the whole poker community.

You're the one who has your attendance numbers from last year, you know what events are viable and draw a crowd. The best thing for all of us is that you bring more people into poker. We need more fish. These lower-buyin price points fill a need. The fact that you are able to do them with well-planned structures and decent guarantees is commendable. I hope to play some of your events on my trip this year.

Will you be able to register for any event in the series?

Also, if you register and can't make it as you make day 2 for something else, can you get a refund?

Finally got to see the schedule. Which is more preferred? The Goliath or the colossus? Similar buy in but which is a better value in you guys opinion? Can't help but think weaker field in the wsop but larger field. What kind of turnout can we expect at Goliath? Looking for a good reason to choose .

There should be the Agadoo Pineapple Championship where you have to dress like a pineapple, and you get to play Pineapple...

Any structure info on Goliath million?

That horse looks interesting. If I bust I may play it.

Good schedule Chris. Keep in mind that if you try to please everybody you end up pleasing no one.

Thanks Chris, you are doing a grand job responding to everyone.

Presumably the min cash on day 2 will be more than the day 2 buyin?

Quantum Reload is the format used for the Mega Million tournaments at the Bicycle Casino.

You can play one of the opening flights for $130, if you qualify more than once, you get paid for your 2nd (or more) stacks.

Or... you can buy-in on Day 2 for a higher price and start with 50 (or whatever PH determines) big blinds.

This is the structure sheet for the most recent Mega Million event at the Bike:

Day 1

Day 2

Great!!! Especially the #48 which now fits in well with what else is going on around town at that time. *92 is kinda out there all alone but I'm sure I'll find some excuse to be in Vegas at that time. This is probably the first ever NLO8 tournament held in Vegas. Hope the Europeans see it there and stay in Vegas long enough to make it a success. Good luck with that one. I hope you get good attendance so that NLO8 will become a regular tournament in Vegas from now on.
Thanks for listening to my complaints!

This sounds like a lot of fun actually.

So much information to process. If you have a good memory you can really have an edge at this game.
