Do you have pet friendly hotel rooms?

We do not offer pet friendly hotel rooms. Only service animals are permitted.

Incidentally, I have the same problem when I travel. And even the "pet friendly" hotels tend to balk when they see a 170 lb. English Mastiff. Very difficult to get housekeeping to come anywhere near the room.

I forgot to mention in the post earlier that we're are doing a leader board for the nightly event. Points awarded to the night event players that cash. Most points wins a main event entry.

Johnny, how late is registration going to be open for the noon and 4pm(?) tournaments? I'm assuming for the PLO it's the length of the rebuy period?

Reg. will be open until the end of level 3 for all events. Depending on which event you are asking about, that will be from 1.5 hours after start time up to 3.5 hours for the main event. Levels 1-3 are a minimum of 30 minutes, depending on buy-in.

Thank you sir. I assume you guys are just not getting enough players to justify the lowball tournaments anymore?

Yeah, would love to mix in a lowball event, but with just 11 days to work with, there was no room on the schedule. We may do a lower limit lowball in January during the Million Dollar Heater. A $200 or $300 with ace, deuce, and badugi or something like that.

If I remember correctly, there was 5 entries for the Mixed Triple Draw(A-5, 2-7, and Badugi) tourney last time. So I doubt it will show up again.

I like the date Johnny since it follows the wsop circuit at the IP closely I can just stay over after the wsopc and play yours also. But I will have to cash some in the wsopc inorder to afford to stay over.

You can call 228-386-7254 and ask for Johnny or Donna to book the room. If you do not reach us, PLEASE leave a voicemail, and one of us will call you back shortly. We are probably on the phone booking rooms if we don't answer.

We will be in the office Monday-Friday from 9am to 5pm central time.

Hello Johnny,

I cant hear on phones I am born deaf and Im interesting getting at least two nites. Do you think you can help me with it? I plan on playing the two events and some sngs and cash games.

Let me know or you can pm Thanks for your time and help. I look forward to it.

Booked a room at the Beau for the whole series, but will probably just play in events 1a, 1b, 4,6,8a,8b. Will do the 2500 if I win any decent money. Good luck to all.

Johnny,

Have you ever considered adding a heads-up event to the series? I am assuming you have and just don't feel that the demand would be there. Just checking because I think it'd be a fun addition.

We will likely have a $1K heads up event at the Million Dollar Heater event in January.

Rooms bookings are starting to accelerate. We will likely sell out of weekend rooms by August 1st, so those of you reading this should book early if you want to stay on site.

Finalized the structures and submitted to Gaming today. I will be in Tunica at the Gold Strike World Poker Open if any of you have any questions about this event. Look me up if you need a room reservation at either property, and I will be happy to take care of it for you.
