    Alright, it's time for the 2nd installment of the OT WSOP/VegasTourney. It will be held Sunday May 28th at 10:00 pm EST.

    Gambowler won the last one, and for $14 he received a flight to Las Vegas for the P5s party on July 27th.

    Thedetails are in the message below. Minimum of 10 players for thetournament to get off the ground. Also, if you live outside ofthe continental US, I will guarantee the first $300 of your flight.

    tourney #25481174 Private Tab. 10:00 pm EST.

    Hopefully we can generate a lot of interest for this. It'll be great to get you guys out there.

    This Sunday at 9:00 pm EST, we will have our first OffTopic WSOP Satellite Tourney.

    Thepurpose of this tourney is to send one OffTopic guy or girl to theWorld Series of Poker in Las Vegas for the PocketFives party on July27th.

    The tournament will be a standard $10+1 onPokerStars. However, if you want to be part of the satellite, youmust also send an additional $14 to BigGunX on pokerstars anytime before the tourney starts.

    Thetournament will pay out like a normal Stars tourney. However, thewinner will also get their flight to Las Vegas paid. All leftovermoney, after the ticket is purchased, will go to the winner as spendingmoney.

    Here's the deal: I am GUARANTEEING at least one flight to Vegas. If we only get 10 people, I will pay the difference so that an OTer canmake it out there. Also, if you don't want to spend the money ona hotel room, you may stay in mine. I have a suite at theRio for 4 days.

    If you are interested and plan on playing,you can either respond to this, or you can PM me. After you senda message saying that you're in, I will PM you with the password forthe tourney. After a winner is determined, I will handle bookingall flight reservations. You can either call me or IM me, andwe'll get it hooked up.

    I am keeping the passwordas private as I can so that we don't have people from Poker Discussiontrying to play. The point of this is to send an OTer. Ifyou are someone who lurks on OT, but doesn't post much, the honorsystem is in effect and you may still play.

    If we have enough money for two flights, then both 1st AND 2nd will win a flight to Vegas.

    See ya Sunday.

    List of who's in:

    EileenUlich (FlyersGuy)
    Truesyalose
    BigGunX
    Pittproduct

    Pinned this for a bit, so you don't miss it. Just to be clear, last time there were some posts skeptical about this. It's very simple, it's not a "too good to be true scenario", just Biggunx doing this out of the goodness of his heart*, so I hope you all play and have fun and whoever wins, see you in Vegas!

    *previous winners are being housed in Sean's room, and are said to be slated to "sleep between him and Mhoddi", so some small sexual favors may be required, this is not clear or stated explicitly in the terms of the deal, so enter with this in mind. Hey, could be a bonus for some of you ; )

    I think this is a GREAT opportunity for a lot of people out here. You are getting a chance to a round trip flight to Vegas for $25 playing poker. BGX garauntees one!
    Like I said last time. I have no need to win the flight since I live out here, but I'll donate all of my profit to the winner. If by chance I win, second place wins the flight and I will give you the first place money (in addition to the second place money).

    Get on this people. Come out for two/three/more days. It will not be expensive. If you are not 21, there are still plenty of things to do out here. You can always head to the Rio to watch.

    Thanks for the words, guys. Hopefully we can get 20 or so in here. It'll definitely be a good time.

    When you send me the $ on pokerstars, I'll PM the password to ya.

    Most likely, yeah. I didn't see anyone carding at the door to the entrance of the event last year.

    If you're planning to play, sing up early so that the tourney looks more inviting to those who may be considering it.

    It's a holiday weekend, but I know most of you degenerates are still playing, right? Besides it's hot outside.

    It'd be good to get this pretty big so that the winner can a little money to enjoy the trip with. I hope you all play and good luck!

    A flight to Vegas only costs like $100 for me, do I still get all $300 if I win?
