The Red River casino in Oklahoma is hosting a "Chopper blackjack tournament" this Sunday Sept. 24th.
Entry is $120 and first place is (what else) a new Chopper (no cash option)!
The rules are a little strange, but they may work in a seasoned players favor.
Like I said the entry is $120, each player starts with 200 in NCV chips.
Minimum bet is $5 to maximum $25 per hand.
Deal will rotate.
They play 35 hands.
6 to 7 players per table. (they were sure)
I believe the top two players advance (they weren't for sure on this rule either).
Blackjacks pay 2 to 1. (don't care much for that but)
Only 2 splits allowed, DD after splits are allowed. Split Aces only one card.
DD on any first two cards.
Now the funny part, if you advance yo can pay another $120 in the 2nd round for an extra 200 in NCV chips.
And should you advance to round 3, you may pay another $120 for another 200 in NCV chips.
First time I ever saw the winners having to pay more than the losers.
One other little catch, I just found out that to play you have to be signed up by noon tomorrow (Sat. 23rd).
I am thinking about driving up (about 2 hours and 15 minutes from my house) If I should win the chopper I'll make somebody a good deal on it...LOL
Sorry about the late notice I just found out about the Sat. sign-up myself. Swog and I were talking about going up on Sunday, now I guess we leave tomorrow if we are going up.
They expect 150 players I was told.
