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.
gracias 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.
