    Code:
    Qualify by receiving a suited blackjack in live play with 
    a $10 or more bet anytime before event begins - several 
    months to 1 day before the tournament begins. If you have 
    sufficient recorded play, meaning an Elite or Ultra card, 
    you will be invited without having to get a suited 
    blackjack.
    
    Rooms are comped only if you have a record of sufficient 
    play. Otherwise, they are about $55 per night for the 
    tournament players.
    
    They have been drawing 600 to 800 players per event. 
    They can handle about 1,000 players if that many register.
    
    1st day: Normal registration usually 3pm to 7pm.
    2nd day: Late reg. 9am - 10am. 1st round starts 10am.
    3rd day: Rounds 2 - 6 are played.
    There are 6 rounds including the final table.
    
    Based on their past tournaments:
    Min. bet = $100, Max. bet = $2,500
    Generally, 2 advance from each table. If needed, 3 will 
    advance in 1 or 2 rounds to make the numbers work. 
    Standard Hilton shoe game rules.
    H17, BJ pays 3:2, surrender.
    
    Many "wild cards" drawn for each round including one for 
    the final table.
    
    A "Mulligan" will be offered for a price of $100. This 
    gives you the right to change your last card dealt on a 
    hand (even if the card busted your hand) or change either 
    of the first 2 cards dealt to you before you take a hit. 
    You can only use the "Mulligan" once in each round you 
    play. If you want a "Mulligan" you must purchase it at the 
    cage before you sit down to play. You cannot purchase it 
    at the table.


    Prizes:
    Total Prize Pool: $100,000 (Guaranteed)
    1st=$50,000 (Guaranteed) / 2nd=$12,000 / 3rd=$8,000 / 4th=$6,000 / 5th=$4,000 / 6th=$3,000 / 7th=$2,000
    Details:

    receive $1,000.

    2011 Hilton date

    Sure about the dates in March for the next Hilton tournament? March 2-4 is Wednesday thru Friday. Thanks

    I agree that the timing (Wednesday thru Friday) is unusual. The dates came directly from the pre-printed receipt they give to those that get a suited Blackjack - that's all I can go by at this time. I regularly receive their event calender which goes forward about 3 months. If they do change the date, I will update the calender on this site as soon as I know something different.

    Thanks for the info Toolman. I think I'd like to play in next year's Hilton events. Iowa is next on my dance card.

    Correct dates

    I checked with my LV Hilton host, the dates Toolman posted for a Wednesday through Friday tournament although unusual are correct for the LVH March 2011 100K blackjack tournament.
