For your bigger buy-in event, you MUST play the Wynn tournament. They have $300 on Tue and Thur and a $500 on Fri. It is the best structure you will find in town.

3000 Starting Chips
25/50 First Level
45 Minute Rounds

This is EXACTLY the kind of info I'm looking for.

And, I assume, you believe this is a better buy than the Bellagio $500?

Great stuff, man.

Yes, Bellagio is 2K starting chips with 40 minute levels. The competition is about the same at each. I played in 2 Wynn tournies and won one of them and bubbled the other.

Also, the chips are no where near as cool.

Well, so far I've got the Wynn, Sahara and Orleans down.

Any other suggestions out there???

The 11am MGM doesn't have a great structure, but it's definitely a soft field with a good payout. $50+15, usually get around 100 entrants, top 6 get paid.

From what I recall, the structure is:
~1200 Starting Chips
25/25 First Level
20 Minute Rounds

It's also a much nicer place to sit for 3 hours than the Luxor or others at that end of the strip.

If there are more than 50 people, they pay 9 spots. If there are less, they pay 5 spots. They may have updated this since last time I played, but I think this is still correct.

I played in the Wynn tournament last Tuesday and the payout is still the same. Top 9 get paid because they usually get around 100 players. Also they are now offering the same tournament on Wednesday. So the new schedule is Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday $300+30 at Noon and on Friday its $500+40 at Noon.
