whats the buy in? and when's it gonna be?

It's a free tourney. Last table is in the money!

We are going to have an optional small buy-in for charity. If the winner donated, he gets half the pot. If the winner did not it will all go to charity.

Saturday the 23rd. We are aiming for the first hand to be dealt at 3:00.

would pay for. I am not saying that is the case, but I would prefer to not even have to worry about my identity being compromised. )

To be honest I am not even happy about people knowing what I look like.

Operaman,
Apologies for not answering you sooner. I saw you pointed out your Qs in the downgrade SBR thread.

Valid CS complaint.

Bill,

I have a question for you guys can you send a voucher through the mail or do I have to purchase the ticket first then send it over to you?

If I get these tickets soon I can get a better price I think.

Thanks.

Iwinyourmoney · 05-19-2008, 11:30 AM

I keep seeing the word voucher. Are we getting a check, cash, or what for travel?

Mr. D · 05-19-2008, 11:47 AM

Ladies and Gents, for those qualified for travel expense reimbursement: there are no vouchers! purchase your tickets and when you actually show up at the Bash you will be REIMBURSED up to $300 for your travel expenses.

tblues2005 · 05-19-2008, 11:50 AM

Iwinyourmoney I sure would like to know this also. Maybe they will give us a ticket with our names on it through the cheapest airfare they could find for us or something. I found the cheapest airfare from here is $310 round trip on southwest. I sure would like to buy my tickets here soon so I could get a good deal to get there.

tblues2005 · 05-19-2008, 11:52 AM

Mr. D thanks for letting me know about it. I found tickets on southwest.

I would like to know about travel to the hotel is there a shuttle that goes between the airport and hotel when I get there?

So if I'm living in Vegas at the time, can I take a helicopter to the Grand Canyon and back and get my airfare reimbursed by SBR?

Instead you get a 300 dollar casino credit. Enjoy the tables.

tblues2005 · 05-19-2008, 10:45 PM

Kellen that may be the thing here it might be a $300 credit towards the casino. I will playing the horses with that credit possibly. I will for sure have my forms printed out at home so I can wager on them there.

Thats what I was thinking. I figured they worked something out with the Nugget to reimburse us like that. Its cool with me, cause even if they gave me 300 cash reimbursement, it would go to the casino.

so im assuming the golf tourney is free as well?

tblues2005 · 05-20-2008, 03:13 AM

Kellen that sounds great to me also and that is what I would do if I was them also. Getting $300 in casino money is alright with me. Like I said I would be playing the horses and making future football bets while I am there for sure.
