players in finals all guaranteed some money.

round for $75. 

Although they advertise that it is a weekly event, they  
have monthly invitational tournaments usually on third  
Friday of each month, so they won't have their weekly  
event that Friday.  You might be able to talk your way  
into the invitational if you show up, but no guarantee to  
play unless invited.  Be sure to call or send email to  
confirm play before going just to be sure.  They do  
respond to emails to their general info address, but it is  
best to email a day or so ahead so that they have time to  
reply.).
