wareagle there is a GREAT page on cardplayer mags site that details the daily tourneys. I love playing in the smaller daily tourneys. What I have done before is around 930 or so, I show up at Luxor, sign up for their Noon tourney, then walk to Mandaly Bay. Play their 10am which at the longest lasts until 1145 or so, then run through the walkway to play the noon Luxor tourney. Anyway, I will post that site when I grab it out of my favorites.

Here is the site: http://www.cardplayer.com/?sec=ttrail&list_id=238

I dont know if you are looking for higher dollar ones, but these are all $25 or so entry with $400 first place prizes on average. I played in the Orleans Sunday tournament once, the first prize was staggering because of the rebuys. But anyway, I have played casino poker for maybe 10 years now and really still love these tournaments. They are a great way to get a lot of time and tournament experience in, its something I never miss on my trips out there. If you have any other questions about them, drop me a line or post em here.

Ace i cant thank you enough. this is exactly what i was looking for. does this get updated weekly? can you not look out two or three weeks? i prefer anything from 20-100$$ buy in no limit. What are "freezouts"?

i have a passion for poker that grows everyday, its kind of weird

Thanks in advance!

wareagle, its great to see more and more people getting into poker. I started playing my first year in college and havent stopped since.

That schedule there is a weekly schedule, it gets updated if things change, but what you see on there for say a Thursday happens every Thursday.

A freezout is the opposite of a rebuy tournament. You pay your entry fee, get chips and thats it. You cant pay more to get more chips once you bust out, in a freezeout you bust and youre done. In a rebuy, like the Orleans. your $60 entry fee gets you X chips. If you bust out you can buy back in for a certain amount.
