No rooms included with enry fee. Entry fee, as well as 
rooms, can be partial or fully comped depending on your 
record of play. They look at your record of play at all 
Harrah's Properties not just Council Bluffs in determining 
comp entries. The purpose of this tournament seems to be 
to build up their custome base and not intended 
exclusively as a reward for their higher rollers.

Tournament is limited to 300 players. If they reach that 
goal then the EV becomes $583. The tournament is subject 
to cancellation if fewer than 60 participants.

Must sign up over the phone to reserve a seat prior to the 
beginning of registration on July 25.
