1. I missed the deadline. How do I enter the blackjack (or poker) tournament?

Blackjack answer: See Bob Pardue, tournament director, at the start of the blackjack tournament -- at the Palms, Wednesday noon, with your $80 entry fee. There are still seats available.

Poker answer: See Bob Pardue, tournament director, with your $100 entry fee. He will be accepting entries on Thursday, on the convention floor (page him), or at the start of the tournament at Binion's, Thursday night at or before 7:00 pm. There are still seats available.

2. I signed up for the blackjack (or poker) tournament, but now I can't make it. Can I get a refund on my entry fee?

Answer: Contact Bob Pardue, tournament director directly, BEFORE the start of the tournament. IF he can re-sell your seat, you will receive a refund. However, if you do not contact him, with confirmation, before the tournament starts, your entry fee will be included in the prize pool, and cannot be refunded.

How to contact Bob Pardue: By email (pardue@cox.net) or phone (949-588-1544) until Sunday noon, June 15th... or at the Riviera or convention floor, starting Monday evening, June 16. If leaving a message, please include your contact info (email, phone#, etc.) so Bob can confirm he received your request. There's no guarantee that your seat can be re-sold, but will make best efforts to do so.
