Vegas Tournaments Question, Tig1010, 14. Nov 2003 19:12
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
Hi all...

I have just a general question....my wife and I will be in Vegas in December, and would like to play in some of the daily tournaments the casinos have.

Can you call the casino's and reserve a spot before hand, or must you wait until you get there, and then enter the tournaments??

Any information would be greatful....

Thanks,
Todd

Most are no longer taking call-in's, as the attendance surge in tourneys has become overwhelming. Sahara still accepted call-in's as of September, the last time I was in Vegas. Some of the smaller cardrooms, like Sahara, might still accept call-in's as well, but the bigger rooms, like Orleans, Mirage and Bellagio definitely do not.

Mandalay Bay has a nice one, especially if you're not a high stakes player. 10:00AM weekdays. $30.00 buy-in. 30 player limit. NLHE. $325.00 or so to the winner....the the folks there are really nice and you couldn't ask for a nicer setting in my opinion.
