Pete,
Do you care to explain the "scam" here? A tournament does not have to be publicly advertised! I have been invited to and played in many tournaments there were NOT open to the public. They were by invitation only! Marketed to a select group. The "other" player club members were NOT invited to play. Not all of them. I am sure there have been many "tournaments" that have been held that I have NOT been invited to. So what.

Would you care to shine the "new light" on these folks and enlighten me? I have a problem with the way the Flamingo treated 150 members of this Club. Are they all in on the "scam"?

I am just a dumb old boy from Texas, so I need the Vegas intellectual to explain this to me! Until then, I think I'll stay up and ask stupid questions!
