Reality is they haven’t been selling out pre-flight in a while-the last few have haven’t hit capacity until early afternoon ish. If you’re there before the start, you will almost certainly be good. The same may not hold for the Thanksgiving turnout which may get a bigger field.
Hi Anton,
actually for the the $100K guarantees we have been able to adjust the dealer schedule on the fly at times and open more tables as needed so we didn't have to go to the alternate list too early. Because of that seating has been available until later. The good news is all the $100ks have at least doubled or tripled in prize money with Super Stacks drawing 744 entries with a $297,600 prize pool!

Btw love the $460 structures. Have traveled a bit recently for live mtts in the northeast and think the structure you guys offer with the 40/50 min levels and a $460 buyin is excellent. Played a $500 in Philly recently and structure was much worse with more rake. Think the $460 structures are very player friendly.

Looking forward to the Black Friday mtt. This mtt at stone is by far my favorite date as I can easily play both day 1 flights and not have to worry about using a vacation day. Hoping it can hit 800+ runners.
Hi JK,
January WPM $460 wil be January 6,7 and 8. again sorry for the delayed response!

Hey thanks for replying Frankie! Any idea how many cash tables you guys will have open max during wsop?

I’m looking forward to the series! Turning Stone does a great job for that series! I wish we could get another circuit event in the fall. It’s a great tournament festival!

Hi Frankie, wondering if you could clear something up about the Circuit schedule.... I see event 2a is March 14, 2b and 2c are the 15th, and 2d is the 16th. Are these all "day one flights", and if so, when is "day two", ie: when all the day one flights combine and play down to a winner. Thank you

All of the structure sheets posted on the wsop website has the date and time for their particular tournament day two. Event 2 merges to Sunday at noon.

Got it, thanks. I checked the WSOP circuit page and did see that you are correct. Also saw that they reserve the right to add a third day to this, if it isn't able to conclude on the Sunday, which sadly kills this trip for me.

It should end on Sunday night like it has the last two years. They play deep into the money on day1s flights, so the returning players were pretty close to 5% of the field left instead of a normal 10-15% bagging etc.

What happen to the free tea along side the free coffee this year at the WSOPc convention center? They had it last year, but now only coffee. They have a suggestion box to ask for it next year?

Looks like they let the coffee run out too and then players have to pay the $3 to get it at the food stands. I hope this is not being done on purpose cause it's a bad look for Turning Stones & WSOP.

Frankie, they told me to complain directly to you about it, but I don't want waste your time. I'm sure you have heard this already. I just hope you guys can improve it for next year like it was in 2023. Thanks

I asked around while I was up there - apparently whoever was responsible for ordering the tea selection last year forgot to do it for this year. Crazy enough, they didn’t catch that error until the morning of day 1 when they put hot water out but no tea!

Anyway the solution to no teabags is simple: before your flight or during any break, walk two minutes to the casino floor to any of the three free drink stations where they have free tea bags. The friendly people at the concession stands inside of the event center have hot water and will refill you free of charge at any point during your tournament! There’s also several tea options in your room if you are staying onsite - housekeeping is happy to provide you with extra bags if you request them as I did.

Can we also say a huge thank you to Frank, Corry, the entire staff in the TS Poker room, and all of the WSOP crew for being consummate professionals during all of this chaos? The poker room has been an absolute madhouse since 3/13 yet everyone has been incredible, friendly, and diligent. The Turning Stone poker room continues to be without any equal on the east coast thanks to its staff, it’s ambiance, and it’s dedication to top notch poker.
