You are not required to get an ITIN since you reside in a country that has a tax treaty with the United States.

Of course i need to fill out tax paperwork if i cash, and then i need for ITIN number. to be able to prevent tax withholding.
Do the Commerce casino help the players to apply for ITIN number ? as they do in WSOP.

This applies to anyone that does not live in the state, whether you live in Sweden or even Las Vegas, whether you have an ITIN or not.

$5,000 net before we report for federal taxes. $1,500 net before we withhold for California Out-of-State withholding.

Don't forget your hoodie!

All kidding aside, LAPC 10K gets over 200 satellite qualifiers, Hollywood actors & directors, producers and as many SAG's and Iranian & Persian players than any other WPT on earth.

And the 10-20NL cash game is the best on earth, which is really suited for an online guy because it is a 600 min buyin, but most players have 5-10K in the front which plays like a MTT.

If that's to low stakes they have 20-40NL, 50-100NL and the PLO 2K buyin is ridiculous.

Just jump on I-5 freeway north set the cruise on 70mph and 3hrs exit Washington Blvd and BOOM your at the "GREATEST POKER CASINO ON PLANET EARTH".

Looking at the Mix-Max structure and I have a few questions:

It shows different payouts for 3rd and 4th place, as HU tourneys normally have the same payouts for 3&4 is this a mistake or intended?

When down to 5 handed, will it be combined to one table?

It says HU matches are 2 of 3. Will the 2nd and 3rd match start with the same chips as rolled over from the redraw or even in chips?

At 5 players, it will be combined to one table.

2nd match will start with the same stacks as the 1st match. If a 3rd match is necessary, chips will be even.

Last year was a $340 with a Million guaranteed. They missed it by 100K so they lowered it all the way to a $225 250K guarantee. Kind of disappointing but still good value.

Yes, we make the cards for you in the registration area and you just need a valid ID.
