Default Seneca Casino (Niagara Falls) - Short Tourney Report

$35 buy in
400 starting chips (shallow)
50 entrants
$10 unlimited rebuys (200 chips) for the first 4 rounds. You can purchase two at a time but only when you bust out.

Needless to say the play was ridiculously maniacal for the first four rounds. I doubled up very early when my pocket 10s held up against KJ. I was able to muscle my way to a decent chip stack and then picked up pocket Kings. I re-raised a raiser and a caller all in and both came along (AK, 88) both of whom had decent chips stacks themselves and everything looked good until the unfortunate 8 came on the river, which severly crippled me. Oh well, it was fun and I had a good time. I think the prize pool was $3,000, top 6 cashed. When I left, the top 6 were making a deal to chop.

From what I witnessed, I didn't think the competition was all that strong. I'd like to hear from anyone that have played in the freeze-out tournaments there. Are the players much better. I know they run a $120 tourney that I'd love to play in.
