Read something on RGP yesterday that the 11th might be sold out by the end of this week or something. Last year opening event $1000 drew about 480 players.

Last year they did not allow you to register until the 9AM the morning of the event. When I arrived at 8:45 there was a line wrapping around the poker room and into the race book room. By 9:30 the line was wrapping around itself all through the room. That was to get 485 people registered at 2 windows at the cage. They were still registering people an hour after the tournament started. I hope they learned a lesson and will do it differently this year.
Has anyone heard if they are going to make these smaller events multi day events or are they doing them as marathons? Last year the final table of the $1,000 finished at 6:30AM after starting at noon the day before. I am not complaining because it was a nice check, but I wanted to be prepared just in case.
