Re: WSOP circuit event day 1
congrats on the kid.
great news on the turn-out.
Not too shabby at all considering the short notice and it's jsut a month after everyone and their brother (so it seemed) was in Vegas for the various WSOP events.
I've seen the local TV commercian for the event numerous times and was hoping it might help draw some of the Memphis local, home-game and bar-league players too.
(the TV spot is the same as that WSOP-circuit spot where some guy named Mike is just standing there at the camera not blinking and the 'voice' says "okay..you're really angry...lets see it Mike!!" "pull it back a bit Mike. pull it back."
But in the middle they specifically mention 'Play in the WSOP-circuit coming to the Grand Casino in Tunica beginning August 10th."
Also another color ad..1/3 page I think...in the Memphis Flyer (weekly paper). Raymer, Devilfis, Harmon and Doyle are pictured along with a complete list of every single event through the 2 weeks.
I'm guessing the same ad is in the Memphis Commercial-Appeal newspaper as well (the main paper) as well as perhaps some of the northern Mississippi area newspapers.
