WSOPC Event in Cherokee, NC April 16-27

I am trying to get a feel for who might be planning on playing in this event so we can possibly plan a small CardsChat team event.

The dates are Apr 16-27 but the specific event schedule has not been released yet. I am assuming it will be like the others.

That means there should be a $365 event that starts on Fri at 5pm and is a 3 day event. You can start:

Fri 5pm
Sat 12pm
Sat 5pm

There are unlimited re-entries. CardsChat would pay something like $150 of the entry for each team member then the person who lasts longest would win around $400.

Who might be there besides me?

I'd love to go, but my birthday falls on that Wednesday before & I might be out of town in the opposite direction (west).

If plans change, I'll re-post ITT.

GL to everyone that might be there! TID CC :icon_thum

Hi Debi, Like I fb'd you, I'll be there the 19th thru 22nd, the 19th being Sunday. I'm hoping to play the Seniors and then the 6-man the next day.

I have poker friends who will be there most of the tourney, so I could probably come in Saturday for this event. If I run good I'll skip Seniors and see what follows. So tentatively, yes.

Helpful Tourney Links: incomplete info posted by wsop & Harrahs, should be up soon.

Hope to meet a bunch of CC'rs here... should be fun!

Cool - can't wait to meet you!

I have my rooms reserved - just like last year I have to stay both weekends at a separate hotel because Harrah's only let's their big time gamblers stay there on the weekends.

There is a brand new hotel across the street - Stone Brook Lodge - that has rooms so staying there. It is $169 a night on the weekends.

But I am getting 5 of my 7 nights at Harrah's free so that helps.

I will arrive Thurs night Apr 16th and leave Mon Apr 27th. Only staying that long because the Ladies event will prob be that Sun - otherwise I could have left on Fri. If the schedule is what I think it might be there will be nothing for me to play on Fri or Sat which sucks. That means the Ladies tournamant will cost me about $1000 to play. If I hadn't finished 3rd last year I would prob skip it lol.

Will get Joe to come up that weekend and do some things with him to make it worthwhile.

Would love to do it. I may have to be in the neighborhood for a meeting April 23-24 and might could arrange to stay over another night (or two, depending on how good I run!). Would love to be part of a Cardschat team and play in a real WSOP event!

And if you play the event the first weekend, I might could make that as well, depending upon soccer schedules!

That's why you have assistant coaches!

Had a decent amount of interest shown in my Facebook post so this will probably happen.

Cool.... Bump!

Yeaaa - the event schedule is out! http://www.wsop.com/tourney/tourneydetails.asp?groupID=1121

We will definitely do the $365 that starts at 5pm on Friday - it is a $500k gtd!

I will start a team thread - but you will have 3 times to enter - in addition to Friday you can enter at 12pm Sat and 5pm Sat.

This is going to be awesome fun!

Ohh - and there is a monster stack on Wednesday - so excited!

a very nice schedule..... Have to get some extra nights booked to play Saturday and dang, that Omaha on Thursday is calling me like a Siren

That's the only one that doesn't interest me lol.

LOL Debi.... I'll have some friends playing in it. Last December wsop-c my neighbors son finished 6th or 7th in it. When Homegamin, about 1/2 the dealer choices are some Omaha variant which is nice because it breaks up the NLHE and builds some nice pots.

I love to play in it - but have no idea what the best strategy is lol.
