Default Help tweak my AC trip plans for 12/18, please

Assuming Mother Nature doesn't throw another surprise curveball, or something come up to kill my Sunday plans, I'm tentatively headed for the Queen by the Sea in two weeks.
I was going to try some tourneys and catch cash games in between (maybe that Stud8/Omaha8 game at the Taj I've heard about?)

Here are the Sunday tourneys as listed on the Web:

TAJ MAHAL

NLHE $80+$20 at 10:15 a.m and 6:15 pm
$T5K in chips, $25/50 open, 20 min rounds

Has the Taj started running satellites for the 2006 US Poker Championship yet?

BORGATA

Is the early 11 am tourney always a Ladies Only?
$80+20 $T5K stack, 25 minutes, $25/50 blinds,

NLHE $85+15 7 pm NLHE
$25/50, 30 minute levels, $T5K in chips
You can buy in late, "until the second level" ?

What do they do for this? "Level 14 and beyond by tournament director. "


S&G's that run from 10 am to 10 pm
$60+15, $120+20

T2K in chips, 25/50 start, 15 min levels, $500/$100 for first/second
T2500, 25/50 start, 15 min, $1000/200


TROPICANA
NLHE with one add-on (immediately, or as long as you don't bust out before round 3?) I don't know the add-on cost or amount of chips- can anyone fill me in?
12:15 pm
$100+$25; T4K stack, 20 min rounds but an ugly $50/100 starting blind



Showboat has $40 buy-in tourneys at 11 am and in the evening. I wasn't sure about Harrahs, Caesar's or other smaller rooms.


MY PLAN: Arrive for the 10:15 Taj tourney. If I bust out early, hit the Borg or Trop tournaments. Not sure what tournament to hit in the evening- is the Borg too much of a zoo to get into?

Any recommendations, warnings or rejections to my plan would be appreciated.

Doubt it the Trump Classic isn't even over until 12/18.

So no one gets shut out if there is line, it won't affect you if you buy in on time, other than you may pick up some undefended blinds.

only 1k in chips. 200+25 and 500+50 (3k in chips in the 500)

Add-on in AC is always same as the buyin so $100 for a $100+20.

You can definately get shut-out of Borgata Torny, never been to the new Sunday tourny but 45 minutes early should be fine. If you in the TAJ area anyway I wouldn't bother treking to the Borgata as you won't be able to kill time in the side action. Just stay at the TAJ and kill time in the 10-20 or 15-30 two-way games, since I am never there on Sunday you have my permission to sit... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

"Doubt it the Trump Classic isn't even over until 12/18."

Maybe they won't hold their Sunday 10:15 a.m tourney then. Thanks, I'll have to call before that weekend to check.

Are you sure you don't want me sitting when you do? :P I'm probably looking for the $3/6 rotation anyway.

Anyone have any comments on one tourney over another, or are they all about the same (so that the Taj is a good start)?
