Will the $100k guarantee at Aria fill seats, or will the $250 price point at WSOP get nits in seats?
I just turned 50, so this Senior thing is kind of new, and I want to maximize my youthful advantage...
The Aria seniors last year had 334 entries and a 133K+ prize pool. Last year it was 2 days before the Rio seniors but this year, as you noted, the day before.
I don't know when the Aria ended last year but you may have to plan for a late or early morning ending. If you bust early it won't matter.
The Rio is a new event and by nature I distrust the logistics at the Rio in which an event starts at 9AM. Who knows how many and how long the lines ? I plan to look on the prior weeks numbers and see how the event progresses before making a decision.
Personally, I am more comfortable at the Aria in all aspects, but it doesn't negate playing at the Rio.
I suspect that there will be many players at both venues who do not plan to play at the Rio for the Thursday event. Nits, and nits, who knows???
