I doubt I will be there this weekend, but there's an off chance. Anyway, I can answer most of your questions:

I'm assuming they have some way to wiggle around the "$250 max cashout rule," right?

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes. They pay you anything extra in gift certificates or gold coins. If it's only a little over then just have someone else cash it or sell your chips to someone else. People are always wanting to buy chips at the table.

The structure for STT's is odd. 12 players, rapidly increasing blinds, and they pay TWO places? WTF? What are the payouts? 70/30?

[/ QUOTE ]
These are horrible because of the blinds. The payouts are also very steep. I think the prize tends to be someting like 70/30 or so. Also they only pay out for 10 spots; the other 2 go to the rake.

Is it possible to beat a $5 rake playing 5/10?

[/ QUOTE ]
Absolutely.

Do they ever spread games not listed on the website? I'd like to play higher than 5/10, and I'd like to play a MTT.

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, they spread a 2/5 NL 300 max (which the call a tournament table for legal reasons.) They also spread 10/20 whenever there is enough interest, but it has basically died because of 2 reasons. The first is the 2/5NL took away a lot of players. Also a lot of regulars now play someplace else.
