TJBPA - Las Vegas

Isn't the English language a crap shoot anyway?

And all this time I thought you were being cute by calling the tower a "pair 'a dice"! :)
 
Curteous's Revenge

Well, I could be courteous and not point out anybody else's spelling booboo.....
Oops. Let he who is without sin .... :)

I don't suppose I'd get away with pretending it was deliberate irony. :angel:

Quite why anyone would want to open a new account just to cast the first stone is beyond me.

Probably a frustrated, retired High School English Teacher who has nothing better to do with his/her time. I put this post through the spelling checker to avoid harassment but then I thought I should give this person something to complain about, to feed his/her ego, so here goes: Ain't no problem if somebody sometimes misspells a word or sometimes don't use correct grammar and stuff like that! :D
 
I think everyone UNDERSTOOD what you meant. Good lord... And Rick, I would play Scrable with you any day. Just maybe not for cash... ;D

Might as well jump on!!

Since everybody seems to be on the grammer and spelling bandwagon, I might as well jump on. If you did not know "Scrabble" is spelled with two b's not one. It is funny how threads take on a whole life of there own. This post was orignally about the Lav Vegas tourney, & look where is heading.:laugh:

Weekend house or weekend mouse by the way.:laugh:
 
Yuk

just checked my work calendar - and realized I can't make the Vegas tourneys - didn't think about them being mid-week - I have meetings that I can not skip out on scheduled for those days (regularly scheduled Board meetings for my agency) - and will have to be in Parker AZ - not Vegas NV - :sad:

hope everyone has fun -

will be in Vegas the week after Thanksgiving and playing in the local mini-tournaments
 
Tropicana Questions

In November the Las Vegas Hilton will be hosting their $30,000 blackjack tournament on the 8th - 10th, followed by their "Suited Blackjack" tournament on the 10th - 13th.

And as of today, those events will be followed by our first TBJPA - Las Vegas events on the 13th - 16th at the Tropicana.

Because of the other two events already scheduled in Las Vegas the TBJPA will only host two TBT events, (one on the 14th and one on the 15th) for a total of four tournaments. However we will be hosting satellites on the 13th for both of the TBT events.

1- Is this event still on....there have been no posts for several days and it's time to make reservations.

2- There is a slight descrepancy on the dates.... the first reference says
13th - 16th... and the second says two events on the 14th and 15th.
 
Yes, the Tropicana is still on...

The Tropicana schedule is:

Tuesday 13th:

Registration at 2:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

Satellite events: 6:00 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.

Wednesday 14th:

TBT #1 - In memory of "PHIL BACH".

Start: 10:00 a.m.

Thursday 15th:

TBT #2 - In memory of "Big Chuck Gorson"

Starts: 10:00 a.m.

Discount code for hotel rooms at the Tropicana: TBJPA07
 
Possible nightly Satellites at the Tropicana for TBJPA events.

I just talked with the Tropicana and there is a chance that they may be holding nightly satellite events from November the 8th - 13th for the two TBJPA/TBT events on the 14th and 15th.

I am supposed to hear back from them early next week on if they are a go or not. If they do host them, this will give players an opportunity to win one of the $300 + $30 seats, plus the $40 TBJPA fee for only $77.00 entry (including dealers tips) and 2nd place would get back their $75.00 entry (less $2.00 tip).

These satellite events (if they happen) will be starting at 7:00 p.m. each night for 2 - 3 hours each night (based on participation). Only 1 - 2 tables will be offering these satellites each night. Players will sign-up for available seating for each event.
