I am planning on going to this. But someone is going to have to pick me up from the airport in Syracuse. PM me or respond in the thread. Murders and rapists need not apply.

edit: I want to come in to town on the 15th.

Ill be leaving the 13 for cuse and staying over night (to see family) I have no problem driving but id be arriving the 14th at tstone.

Bare in mind this is on the condition that you don’t mind speeding down I-90, and don’t have too much luggage as i can barely fit my suitcase in the back of the car (its a corvette). Also if your massively over weight this could be a problem as well not very roomy.

You will also need a ride back as ill be heading home east. (you didn’t mention returning, so i assume you have a plan for that)

2. What days/times are high for carding?

[/ QUOTE ]

They went through a one week period about 6 months ago when they were carding. Other than that, they do not card. I really would not worry about it if I were you. If you look 16 or older I really do not think you will have a problem. Still, you should probably stick to cash games ad not try to play a tournament as an underage player. GL

silly work firewall blocks casino sites...

Wouldnt matter...they dont put the strucure on the web site.

If the past is indicative of the future u will get T2500, 25-25 blinds 30 min levels. Hopefully they will have listened to their players and give more chips/time for the higher buy-ins, but I wouldnt count on it.

Cool, thanks

A friend and I are thinking of heading out today so if that goes well and I can convince my bro to head out, then I'll definitely be there from the 14-16.

What kind of room rates do they give to the cash game players for the various levels and hotels available?

It's the same as the tournament players. It's the "poker rate."

[TStoneMBD]

dont play tournaments if you are underage. the casino has withheld prizes from minors before. if they card you in a cash game you at least get to keep your chips.

75/night weekday, 80/night weekend

I'm glad they squeeze out that extra $5 on the peak nights.
