Yes!!! They are doing multi cash rather than 5% for the big re entry events.

Thank you Jimmy. I owe you a beer.

What exactly is "multi cash?

My understanding is that you will cash if you make bagging even if you don’t make the bubble.

What a schedule! I have moved out of state but might come back for that week. HORSE, 2-7TD AND Badugi?

I'm getting a little dizzy here.

You can play more than one flight and forfeit your smallest stack for cash and take your larger stack to restart flight.

I guess I need this explained to me like a child. I see the 100k and 200k multi cash events with 6 start times. I get you can chose your biggest stack but is the 6pm the final flight and you’ll play til the end? Either way I think I’m going, looks fun.

There are 6 day one flights. 3 Friday and 3 Saturday. Day two will be Sunday for all flights combined. If you manage to bag chips at the end of any flight, you will be playing Sunday. Not sure how they will be doing the multi cash part as I have not seen the structure and this is the first time they have used this format.

Regardless, it should be a lot of fun. This should drive more re-entries (I hope) and should help with stack sizes for start of day 2.

That’s what I figured. It since I didn’t see a time for $100k final I got confused. Thanks. Should be a fun weekend especially with the DS tourney too.

Anything on room rates?

I still have not heard anything about room rates. Structures can be found at: https://jsommerfeld.egnyte.com/fl/Ft...p#folder-link/

The structures are markedly worse in this series than those of recent times at Choctaw.


Using this calculator:
http://www.rainbowspuppiessunshine.c...ournaments.php


The $240 event in Nov WSOPc had s-points of 70, whereas the $240 in this series only offers a 42 s-point rating.

The "Main Event" in Jan WSOPc had an s-point rating of 106, whereas this "Main Event" only rates at a 73.

Perhaps this decrease in value could be driving the decrease in entrants at this stop, as they have been down significantly versus the previous year.

Hell, there was even an overlay of $40K at their last event & nobody would have dreamed of that occurring previously.

I am curious about room rates also. It seems like they charge more every series...

I booked at the Best Western for 89 a night. There only 3 miles away and have a shuttle. After looking at the room rates I figure that’s best.

I find it disappointing how so few events have guarantees on them

A $125 with a $100,000 guarantee, a $240 with a $200,000 guarantee and a $1,100 with a million guarantee. Just how many casinos give guarantees this high?

For the main, with first 18 levels being 30 min, will day 1 play 16 levels or 18 levels?

Just a guess but i’d say from past events 18 levels which puts it around 1:30 am.

Maybe it's an error on the structure sheet, but it says 30 min levels as oppose to 40. So wouldn't it end a decent amount earlier than that?

You are right I didn’t notice it stayed at 30 minute levels.

40 min levels. It was a typo. Thanks

UPDATE:

There was an error on the structure sheet & all levels are now 40 minutes.

This changes the s-rating to 92 points, which is much better than the previous estimate, but still not as good as the WSOP circuit main event.

You are comparing a $1100 tourney with a $1675. And the $1100 has a one million guarantee not many casinos give a million dollar guarantee on a $1100.
