    Wild Card Drawing at 3 pm.
    Sounds like first round is accumulation. Top 45 scores 
    plus 4 wild cards advance to semifinal round.
    Top 7 scores are said to advance to finals, but it is
    possible they mean 1 from each table of 7. That would be
    the typical old Tunica hybrid format, extended from 36 to 
    49 semifinalists.).

    For your information's, I called Sheraton casino blackjack tournament today and they told me 90 percent for invitations and only 10 percent for open. Only invitations can sign up for the tournaments at this time. The tournament is already filled up. The host told me if you do not have invitation and you want to play in the tournament, you need to show up on Saturday morning (july 19) and wait for anybody cancelled their tournament and to get in. This is tough for people out of town travelling to the casino for the tournament and found out that they can not get in. Anybody in here get to sign up for the tournament??????
