We're less than a month away now, and it appears as though we will be able to accomodate every player who signs up. That's right. Edna, the lovely poker room manager at the Aladdin, says she believes we'll be able to get as many tables as we need. Of course, things are always subject to change, so I don't want to guarantee anything, but this is great news!
Plus, Edna is right now working on a list of pros for us. I should know soon what success she's had. There are a couple other outlets for signing up some familiar faces, so I'll reach out to them after I hear back from Edna.
Less than a month! Can you believe it??
Wheeeee! You rock, CJ!
Posted by: Shelly at May 7, 2005 1:50 PMI am working on a way to show up 100%. I'll get back to you.
I can round up as many pros as you want. Some will be playing at Rio that day, but will come before or afterwards. I know a lot of the top tier now, and can play the poor-little-cancer-girl card, lol.

Posted by: April at May 7, 2005 3:31 PMGreat work CJ -- this is really shaping up and we ALL owe you a drink or two. I missed Marcel last time and would love to chat with him, so that's my personal recommendation, but hell, having any pros around would be fun I'm sure.

Posted by: Easycure at May 8, 2005 11:09 PMThanks. I should be able to manage two hours of sleep between now and June 3rd.
You guys rock!!
