    Most of this information is from their last tournament in 
Sept., 2010. They have been consistant in their prior 
tournament so any changes should be minor.

NOTE: ALL TIMES ARE EASTERN

Player's Card required.

Telephone number, to register, as listed on their web site 
is wrong. The correct direct number to the casino is
1-888-259-7278

Registration (without an offer code) is probably best 
accomplished by going through the Poker Room or talking to 
a casino host.

Walk-in buy-ins on Feb. 19 are possible only if open 
positions exist. Many players (probably more than half) 
will be fully or partly comped into the tournament.
Walk-ins should be available since their tournamnts are 
rarely (if ever) full.

Their last Blackjack Tournament (Sept., 2010) was held in 
the poker room on level 1 so that is were it probably will 
be held this time.

Re-buys only available during Round 1 and are based on 
seat availability.

Friday - Feb. 18: Pre-Registration in Council Bluffs A & B
6:00pm - 9:00pm

Saturday - Feb. 19:
Seven or Eight sessions for Round 1 will be played 
starting at 2PM and then every hour on the hour. 7 players 
per table with 3 advancing per table.

Sunday - Feb. 20:
Round 2, 12:00pm
Round 3, Time unknown
Semi-Final, Time unknown. Reading the literature "between 
the lines", the semi-finals may be "one-on-one" but not 
sure. 
Final Table, Time unknown 
Awards Ceremony: Immediately after Final table - could be 
as late as 7:00pm

In the Past:
6 deck shoe.
15 hands per round.
BJ pays 2:1
Minimum bet is $25 or $50
Max bet - none. Go "All In" at any time or all the time.
No chip counts by the casino.
Play on Poker Tables so counting chips could be tough.

Wildcards are a definite possibility for Rounds 2, 3 and 
the Semi-Finals. Most likely, no wildcard for the Final 
Table.

    Prizes:

    Prize Pool:
    $ 100,000.00
    1st Place:
    $ 50,000.00
    2nd Place:
    $ 20,000.00
    3rd Place:
    $ 10,000.00
    4th Place:
    $ 7,500.00
    5th Place:
    $ 5,000.00
    6th Place:
    $ 2,500.00
    7th Place:
    $ 1,500.00
    The 7 players from the Semi-Final round who do not advance 
to the Finals or are not selected as a wild card will 
receive $500.

There is no mention of any minimum number of players. So 
I'm assuming the prize pool is guaranteed. They do not 
specifically use the word "guarantee" but they have paid 
the full prize money in recent tournaments even if 
attendance was low.
