Re: WSOPCE Palm Beach $500 Buy-In, Million Dollar Guarantee

Lord Strife,

Are you still selling any tickets? I could probably buy a day 1b/c of the 500 and possibly a main event. Are you dealing at kennel club now?

I'd also be up for a local drink for everyone visiting.

rake+add on+additional prize pool diverted does seem a little odd.. am I understanding that right? So it's 500 + 55(rake) + 10(add on) and then .03*500*#players taken out of prize pool?

WTF? why isn't Steve allowed on PBKC property?

Yes you would get refunded for the other days if you get in after 1a., but why bother buying 1b and 1c in advance? You can buy 1a online and once you arrive buy 1b if you bust 1a. I can't imagine it's going to sell out in advance, with the exception of maybe 1a.

Does anyone know how often the 'Tri Rail' runs? From Ft Lauderdale to West Palm, or from West Palm to Pompano.

Re: WSOPCE Palm Beach $500 Buy-In, Million Dollar Guarantee

if you buy a ticket from someone, do you still have to pre-reg or is that a guaranteed seat? (1st time to Palm Beach so no members card)

Re: WSOPCE Palm Beach $500 Buy-In, Million Dollar Guarantee

RE: $50 SAT FEB. 24 Am I reading the structure sheet correctly
$50 entry $20 House fee $5 dealer add on. plus 3% of prize pool to dealer Staff .
Does this mean that there is a rake on all the $50 rebuys! going directly to dealers and PC partners?

Players will start with $1,000 in chips.
 Players may receive an additional $1,000 in chips for a $5 Staff Appreciation.
 Players may make a $50 re-buy ($2,000 in Chips) any time they have $2,000 in chips or
less during the first 4 levels of play. At the end of level 4, a player may make a single or
double add-on. Add-ons cost $50 each and the player will receive $3,000 in Chips for
each add-on.
 The winners will receive a seat into the Championship Event and $50 Cash for every
$1,650 in the prize pool. Any remaining money will be distributed to the next place
finisher.
 3% of the prize pool will be withheld for dealers and staff.

Original entry is 48.50+26.50 the addons and rebuys are 48.50+1.50 which lessens the total juice a bit actually.

I can't read this thread any longer. It took me 11 pages to get the structure.

Lord_Strife and Nevermuk you guys should be best friends.
You both share the same level of maturity.
Strife, you continuously mention things that are irrelevant to this thread.
I am sure you both had a point at some point, but you both approached it so bashful and in a nagging mr. know-it-all manner that it just makes people sick.
You know it is too late to make any changes, everything has to be approved.
He is risking his job over this, he might not agree, but trust me if he misses the guarantee by a few 15-20 percent you get canned or put on the hot seat and get canned next miss.


Jimmy, if they act like kids, treat them like kids and ignore them.
I can guarantee that they both will play this event.
So your work is done, he and the PBKC guaranteed $1 MILLION
That takes balls, so if he has to use techniques and preparation to cover his ass and the guarantee, I respect him for that.
This is a big move and I look forward to this historical tournament.
For such a big event, you shouldn't have a chip-up $10 add-on, since you are already charging $55, but it is common practice with all the other casinos in Florida.

But next time, please include a PLO event.

Re: WSOPCE Palm Beach $500 Buy-In, Million Dollar Guarantee

I would like to play event 1..flight B and C. I want to register online, but I see there is a 17$ fee to buy seat online. Would rather not pay that. If I get in to west palm on 2/16 do you think I will be able to get a seat for day 1B and C?

Re: WSOPCE Palm Beach $500 Buy-In, Million Dollar Guarantee

I like that you are complaing on a public forum about someone complaining. Then to add to the hypocrisy you throw in some changes you would like made to the buy in structure and event series after "you know it is too late to make changes, everything has to be approved".
