Structure of Daily Vegas Tourneys?
Hey all,
Heading out to Vegas in a couple months, and was scouting out the tournament scene online today. I'll be out there from a Saturday evening til Wednesday eveing. I really wanted to play the one or both of the Bellagio's regular tourneys, but they're Wednesdays and Fridays, so that's out of the question. I was looking at the Mirage's website, and these look promising: Sunday: 5:00 p.m. No-Limit Texas Hold'em $330 Buy-in with unlimited $200 Re-Buys for the 1st hour with 1 Add-on. Monday: 7:00 p.m. Limit Texas Hold'em $130 Buy-in with unlimited $100 Re-Buys for the 1st hour with 1 Add-on. Tuesday: 7:00 p.m. No-Limit Texas Hold'em $130 Buy-in with unlimited $100 Re-Buys for the 1st hour with 1 Add-on. Also, the Golden Nuggest appears to have tournaments on Monday and Tuesday - Monday is $125 with unlimited $100 rebuys and an add-on, and Tuesday is $125 with one $100 rebuy and an add-on. The Orleans also has some stuff, but I doubt I'll make it over there. A couple questions - what is the structure of these tournaments? Never played in either. Are they slow enough to give a decent amount of play? How much money would you typically expect to spend in the Sunday Mirage tournament? Should I be prepared to spend a grand if I'm trying to give myself the best chance to win? I can't find ANYTHING about the Mirage tournament structure. The Nugget says theirs is 30 minute rounds with 2K in starting chips, but that still doesn't tell me a whole lot. Any help is appreciated. |

Re: Structure of Daily Vegas Tourneys?
I have played in Mirage events, but I only remember having one rebuy. Maybe they have changed. The structure was fairly decent. You started out with a decent amount of chips and the limits went up every half hour I believe.
I heard the Nugget tournaments were a bit of a crapshoot with limits going up quickly, but that was 6 months ago too. |

Re: Structure of Daily Vegas Tourneys?
Oh yeah, and you might want to walk into Binions on Sunday morning. They don't really advertise online from what I have found, but they were running a $100+ NL tourney that had a decent structure as well. They got about 100 players for that one. I think it started at noon.
