    Does Caesars in Vegas still have those low buy in with really slow structure tournaments going. Last time I was there was July/Aug of 06 and at the time it was the best structure for a small live tournament anywhere. I think it was something like a $65 buy in one rebuy one add on or something like that...pretty good value tournement.

    Yes, it's an early tournament, I want to say 10 am. But it was not a rebuy nor a deepstack. I won it a few weeks ago, fun.

    im pretty sure these tourneys offer a good amount of chips, as far as the structure being slow, i think it might be the opposite

    Yes you get chips and the blinds are 40 minutes but they jump pretty significantly once you get 3 hours into it.

    Becomes a Bodog crapshoot at end...

    Almost EVERY tournament turns into a crapshoot at the end. The difference is that in a lot of places, it's a crapshoot by the end of the 2nd hour.

    The Caesar's tournament structure gives you twice as much play as almost any equivalent buy-in at any other tournament in Vegas.

    The daily's at the wynn were a great structure throughout for the $300 buy in. Bellagio nightly 1k's are also great. I have zero complaints about them at any point in the tournament, so I wouldn't say they all turn into crapshoots.

    Graps,

    I have to disagree with that now....Caesar's trny used to be quite appealing but there are others around town that don't give this crapshoot late like Venetian

    The big jumps are when the go 1k/2k w/ante then 2k/4k w/ante
    Then I believe that the jumps from 5k/10k w/ante go to 10k/20k w/ante....

    The only reason I played this trny is b/c there were so many bad players last summer during the series. When I could though, I played Venetian or Binions (during there classic series).
