Added details (This tournament is held once a month on a Sunday near the
end of the month. The current tournament will be held on
September 27, 2009. 

Tournament consists of 3 rounds.

Fifteen hands are played for each round.

One players advances from each table for each round. 

Everyone starts with $500 in chips for each round. 

Minimum bet is $25. Maximum bet is $500 for all hands and
for all rounds. 

Betting is done in strict rotation beginning with the 
position indicated with a red puck. The puck always starts
at seat one and rotates for each hand. The puck is not
placed at positions where players have busted out. 

You can request a particular seat if it is available when
you register. 

Players have ten seconds to act upon their hands. This
includes making bets. 

Blackjack pays 2 to 1. 

No surrender. 

No insurance.

A bet can not be changed once it has been placed in the
betting circle. 

On the tenth hand the dealer counts every ones chips and
announces the amounts. 

The dealers and the tournament director enforce the rules in
a firm but friendly manner. 

Registration starts at 11 a.m. and the first session of the
first rounds begins at noon. You will have a shorter wait
between rounds if you sign up for a later starting first round. 

You must have a players card to register. Once you have the
card the tournament sign up fee must be paid at the main
cashiers counter. Then you must go to the non-smoking room
to register and play in the tournament. If you register near
the tournament's starting time, you should allow at least
one hour to complete the process due to long lines. The
longest line will be for the players card.
Generally, all of the employees are friendly and are
eager to help you through the process. 

Stick around if you bust out. Several wild cards are drawn
for the semi-round. And if the turn-out is less than
expected wild cards are drawn for the final table.).
