Well semi good news, I have a place that will allow me to host TWO Super-Mini's. Monday the 16th and Tuesday the 17th they have no problem with letting me host the events. They are a little higher for their lease cost, but very nice casino and a lot closer then any of the others. Sunday 15th wasn't avalible because of the Las Vegas "CENTENNIAL" celebration (at this casino anyway). I am still hoping to get another location where all three events can be held, I will pick which casino location by the end of the week. Just wanted to let everyone know we have at least two Super-Mini's that are a go.
