...being held here in Las Vegas on Greg's birthday Friday, October 21st at 8 PM. The tournament will be held at the M. Poker room manager Todd "Beek" Buechler is looking into some type of room rate for those who come from out of town.
It will be a no limit tournament, with a buy in of $100. $10 of that goes to the M for running the tournament & $10 to the dealers. That leaves $80 from each entry towards the prize money. Four places will be paid & there will be NO DEALS made. As has been done in the past two Greg Susong Memorial Poker Tournaments, half of the prize money will be donated to the American Cancer Society for Cancer Research in Greg's name. I will also donate $10 of my own money for each entry.
I am also putting a bounty on myself. I doubt it will happen, but if someone knocks me out of the tournament they will get a $5 M oversized Baccarat chip in uncirculated condition. If I win the tournament then the chip will be auctioned off with the money going to the American Cancer Society.
There will also be a commemorative chip given to each entry. I only plan on having 40 chips made & any left over after the tournament & the 6 to be given to the Susong family will be sold for $20 each. That money will also be donated to the American Cancer Society.
The winner of the tournament will also receive a nice crystal type engraved trophy with their name on it.
Also, I am sure Neal Silverman will be offering some type of deal on either hats or shirts or maybe both.
