$100,000 Blackjack Tournament - Westgate Las Vegas

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 700 to 800 players per event. 
They can handle about 1,000 players if that many register.

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.

The 15 non advancing players from the semi-final tables 
receive $1,000.
