I stayed at the Statosphere once (when there was no poker in there) and I thought it was nice. Even though I have yet to seen the poker room there, but I think this event has some potential to say the least. I wish I can get a sattelite to this game.

Sounds interesting but what a convoluted mess with regard to who owns what piece of who from this and that property and if you are at the final table you own 3% and blah blah blah. Sheesh. And why are some pros getting a freeroll with 60% going to the public and others having to buy in fully.

If I'm going to pay a 5k entry fee to play in a 100k tourney, shana hiatt better be waiting for me in my hotel room.
seems like a retarded rate. |

It'll probably cost $500K just to tell everyone what's going on.

If everyone finishing out of the money gets a $5,000 consolation prize, then what you are really talking about is a $95,000 buy-in with $5,000 in fees.
