Added details (Sign ups begin at 1. Tournament starts at 2 p.m. Preregister
any time Sunday through Friday for only a $25 buy-in. The
casino contributes an additional $35 to the prize pool for
each preregistered entry. The entry fee is $60 if you

Currently a free buffet is given to all blackjack and poker
tournament players.

Tournaments consist of Round l, a Semi Round, and the Final
Table. 

Bets are made against the Casino Dealer. This is not a
player banked game. 

The value of the first burn card is used to determine which
seat is dealt to first to start the round. Seat one no
longer automatically receives the first card dealt. This
means that seat 8 no longer automatically gets the last bet
at the end of the round. As the game progresses, the Dealer
Button is placed even at vacant spots where players have
busted out and have left the table, so, it is still easy to
determine who will be the last to bet. 

An 8 deck shoe is used. 

Penetration is deep. 

Surrender and Insurance are not offered. 

Blackjack pays 2 to 1. Suited Aces of Hearts pays 3 to l. 

You must bet in turn. Once the next player bets you can not
change your original bet. 

Round 1 consists of 32 hands. Minimum bet is $50 for first 8
hands. Minimum bet then increases to $100 for all remaining
hands. All In bets are allowed at any time. 

Three $40 re-buys are available at any time during round 1
before the start of hand 25 regardless of your chip count.
You receive $1200 in chips for each $40 re-buy. Play
temporarily stops at the end of hand 24 to accommodate the
last chance for re-buys.  

At the end of Round 1, the 3 players with the most chips
from each table advance to the Semi Round. 

The Semi Round consists of 16 hands. The two players with
the most chips advance to the Final Table. 

The Final Table consists of 16 hands. 

For all rounds, if you advance, you take your chip total
with you.).
Added prize details (Prize pool distribution: 1st = 40%, 2nd = 23%, 3rd = 12%, 
4th = 7%, 5th = 6%, 6th = 5%, 7th = 4%, 8th = 3%

It is common to chop the pot. When the pot is chopped, all
final table players receive equal payouts that substantially
total less than the amount in the prize pool. Then the 16
hands are played out to see who also receives the balance of
the prize pool for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places only. First place
pays in the neighborhood of $2500.).
