The start time of the tournament has been changed from 8 PM to 9 PM. We are doing this to accommodate several players who want to attend Doug Saito's auction in Arcadia, California the same day. This gives them time to get from there to Las Vegas to play in the tournament.

The confirmed list of players is:

Andy Hughes
Steve "The Whiner" Bedo
Todd "Beek" Buechler
Jay Sands
Scott Snider
Brian Watts
Sheldon Smith
Barry Weintraub
Ron Mollica
Steve Passalacqua
David Spragg
David Sarles
Roger Herman

The Memorial Poker Tournament is being held here in Las Vegas on Saturday, October 27th at 9 PM. The tournament will again be held at the M.

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 three 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 ONLY if we get at least 24 players. Any less than that & no bounty! I doubt it will happen, but if someone knocks me out of the tournament & we have at least 24 players, they will get a $5 M Oversized Baccarat chip in uncirculated condition like the one shown below. Not too many of these hard to get chips have made it out of the cage. If I win the tournament then the chip will be auctioned off with the money going to the American Cancer Society.

The winner of the tournament will also receive a nice crystal type engraved trophy with their name on it, like the one pictured at the bottom of this post. You must be a member to play.

David Sarles is going to match my $10 per player donated to the American Cancer Society. That means for every player entered $20 gets donated to Cancer Research in Greg Susong's name!

Also...he is putting up a bounty on himself. Whoever knocks David out gets BOTH of the Cactus Pete's $5 chips below.

"Cactus Pete's issued their $5 C&J chips twice. In 1961 & 1972. The artwork has more detail in the 1961 issue. When they re-photographed it the artwork becomes less distinct."
