No prelims, it's a stand alone event.

its not easy either, cause im almost always wearing, obv, hoodie, gym shorts, and sandals...cant run/walk fast at all in sandles...

i know its costing me tons of EV between the playing intoxicated and the missing like 2 or 3 hands (thats like the most i ever miss)

but i figure it balances it out by making me happy considering im actually playing live freaking full ring poker, and otherwise would wanna kill myself about once every .5 seconds.

I was fairly potassimized so I just didnt acknowledge him and kept walking never turning my back. ****ing secret tunnel wouldve prevented all of that.

I am getting 'officially' concerned as there has been no posting from Tab in recent days in this thread, especially about room rates, etc...I know I put a comment regarding the rates I got in the mail, but he always answers these questions very quickly...anyone knows if he is on vacation? anyone else has any updates on room rates?

Afaik, Tab usually reads the tourney circuit forum and not mttc. If Tab's dodging u, I'm guessing it's for an entirely different reason (re: smiley faces).

Tab, Matt Savage just announced a $500K guarantee on a $220 buy-in at the Commerce. To keep up, you should raise the guarantee on this one to $3.75 million.

i'll likely give the $165 sattelite a shot and play day 1a if i qualify. i kinda wish the room rates were even more recession friendly.
