Yeah, the comp'd upgrade came surprisingly easy sharing such credentials as "I play SERIOUS mid-buyin on-line poker...with upward of TWO tables at a time, playing some two HUNDRED tourneys a month". [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Meh...maybe it had more to do with sharing my Raptoresque blackjack tendancies - having been locked away, pounding on the door to get out these past couple years [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Airfare is going to cost $250 if I buy it separately. So perhaps I just book my room under my "novelty IDs" name and try to get comps/poker rate, and book my flight under my real name.

Re: OT: STTF-HUC II: Where to stay?
 

Im going to be the dummy, as I've seen a bunch of posts about it, and ask what exactly is STTF-HUCII?

If I had to guess it means Single Table Tournament Forum - Heads Up Championship 2?

If not then what? Where is it being held? What is the structure, and any other relevent details?

Thanks in advance.

That is one hell of a guess.

It's a tournament where someone like me gets to pay almost 100% rake to play a field of 31 players who are much better than me. There will lots of gambling and strippers, so I guess it evens out.

Any casino that understood that was aware of the degenerate gamblers associated with this deal should pick us all up in a jet.

I hear Hooter's has a casino now.

I'm staying at TI. It's where I've stayed the last few times I've been to LV. Don't know if they have a poker room.

The guest rooms are nice, and they do have a nice club (tangerine I think?) Overall, though, their restaurants are meh. But it's so close to everything else and very cheap.

I do suggest booking soon b/c of the holiday weekend. Prices for that weekend are already quite high for normal LV standards. The Venetian (as someone said) does rock but is pricey.
