Palms No-Limit Hold\'em Summer Series - Any info?
Anyone have any info on these tournaments? All I know is they run 2 a day at noon and 7PM. They are either $200 or $500 with a single rebuy. Also they have daily satellites.
Anyone played in these tournaments? What are the satellites like? Below average competition or above average? I will be in Vegas next week and would like to try one of these tournaments out. Thanks |

i played in a $100 STT. the players blow, payouts are like party, and the structure sucks (15 min levels with 600 starting chips at 10/15 blinds then 15/25 blinds then the same from there)

Re: Palms No-Limit Hold\'em Summer Series - Any info?
I'm planning on playing in these next week while there, though is 15% typical juice on a $200 tourney? I had heard these were great tournaments to play in though.
This schedule can also be found on the Palms site, I think its under Gaming, Promotions, NLHE. Anyone know what the starting stacks are for these events? |

Re: Palms No-Limit Hold\'em Summer Series - Any info?
I've played in a few of the $200 tournies...decent structure:
$1000 buy in with one optional rebuy blinds start at 10-15 levels are 30 minutes long the dealers are awesome - very fast so you get an above average number of hands per level. some fish, but some high caliber players as well - John Myung, the Hendon Mob boys, etc... defintely worth playing if you don't mind a top-heavy payout structure. I placed 10th in a field of 150 and only made $380...$40 LESS than my entry and rebuy! But 1st place got over $15,000.... |

Re: Palms No-Limit Hold\'em Summer Series - Any info?
The night I played, Scott Fischman played as well. I will say it again (another thread on this somewhere), I was very impressed with the staff and the structure at the Palms. The tourney was very well organized and lent itself well to actual poker playing. It was NOT a crapshoot. Plan on the rebuy/add-on tho if u plan on playing. I enjoyed the tournies at the Aladdin as well, but I enjoyed my experience at the palms the best.
Good luck, Les |

Re: Palms No-Limit Hold\'em Summer Series - Any info?
I played in the Saturday Noon event last week.. Did not have to rebuy.. 110 players...65 rebuys... first place payed $13,500 and 10-18th paid 340... I made the final table.. and cashed out in 10th... got a great Card Cover.. and my money back.. plus had the pleasure of playing against X-22, aka Paul Magriel.. "the Quack Quack" guy..
For your buy in.. you get great service.. Awesome dealers. Hey to John.. and a 5 buck food coupon that you can save and use elsewhere or use for a sandwich, chips and drink.. plus for players who bust out or are waiting.. they will spread any cash game for ya... Go For it.. Sarah aka Pokermama |
