Choctaw WSOP Circuit Event w/ Televised PNIA - Page 4 - WSOP and Tournament Circut

Has anyone used the site's TicketMaster link to register for events in advance? With no additional fees being tacked on, it would seem to be one way to avoid the concerns about cash advance fees for payment with a credit card while also getting the rewards for the purchase (since, as we all know, cash has no rewards structure).

The site indicates that it would be a will-call pick up, but does that mean a Choctaw box office or the regular registration desk?

Yes it showed as a normal purchase.

Had not gone to the second page...when I was initially looking, it would show briefly with a fee and then quickly self-correct to just the entry total. Going to the second page does include the 'service fee' which is a deal breaker...rewards do not offset the fee.

Is anyone interested in doing a non expensive ($100 or so) points race for the series?

Have not tried the CFS but that Blue Plate place (I don't remember the name of it but it would be pretty obvious which one in the row I was thinking of) onsite has put out some decent meals for me in the past...they had a CFS on the menu but I was never quite that hungry.

off-topic, but I have a place near me on Lake Conroe that we got the chef to dabble with chicken-frying up a ribeye. Was quite the tasty evening...and certainly worth trying in a steak place if they don't have an actual CFS on the menu but have someone in the kitchen worth a damn.

Thanks I’ll try it and will miss seeing you there this trip. Was hoping we could sneak off to Hutchins BBQ.

I know me too!! I have my daughter's roller derby bout this weekend, then have them all next weekend, then the main event weekend I have an unavoidable work conflict on Monday so no point in playing the Main if you can't play Day 3.

That cash game banquet room is the worst. Tilts me before I even get in a game. Seems like they are wasting a really nice poker room that never gets used.

Do you guys expect this main event to get similar numbers to the January event? I think ~1500 is the norm for the Jan. main event.
