Foxwoods on Impulse

[durron597]

Semi on impulse, (I don't feel like getting into why it's "semi") I'm probably going to head up to Foxwoods tomorrow for a few days, whether I can get into the shootout event or not. I have two questions:

1) Foxwoods appears to be booked. Shock of shocks. Anyone have any recommendations for nearby hotels?

2) What are the chances of me getting into one of the shootout rounds if I don't attempt to register until Tomorrow afternoon? This would be my first vaguely important live tournament.

Thanks in advance!
