****** I will mention to you Scott if you are not a member you might get hit with some extra fees. I know the "Facility Use Fee" for that $250 tournament is $25, and normally tournaments have a $10 facility fee. If you are not a member you will have to become one. I don't know if you will get charged to sign up and play or just pay for 1. When I signed up I paid the $25 for the year membership and all my daily fees were waved. Since this is a special occasion they might charge you both still. So signing up for 1 month for $5 plus the $25 for the daily fee, $30 total will be your cheapest option.
OK, I'm planning to give this tournament a go. :)
Go the full year route Scott. When you see the action in the cash games and the tourneys they offer you will play at least once a quarter there.
Can someone please confirm the starting time for this weekend's $250 event?
2pm sunday
I might play. I haven't been to the gemini in over a year.
Do they serve food here?
If not, I'm assuming there's fast food within close walking distance for those of us who can only go about four hours between meals? ;)
This was my first time ever playing at Gemini, so here's a little review...
First off, I didn't think the area isn't too bad. I wasn't worried about my car or my life or anything like that. Inside it's decent. Certainly not upscale, but plenty nice enough to play poker. The bathrooms were clean, they offered snacks, and even brought dinner in from City Barbeque. :) The dealers and other staff were all friendly and competent. We saw plenty of hands for live play in my opinion. The field was very solid. I didn't see very many weak spots in six and a half hours of play.
The tournament structure was pretty good. Starting stacks were 5,000 chips and blind levels were 30 minutes.
Level 1 - 25/25
Level 2 - 25/50
Level 3 - 50/100
Level 4 - 100/200
Level 5 - 100/200/25
Level 6 - 150/300/25
Level 7 - 200/400/50
Level 8 - 300/600/50
Level 9 - 400/800/75
Level 10 - 500/1,000/75
Level 11 - 800/1,600/100
Level 12 - 1,000/2,000/100
Only one thing bothered me about the tournament, and this was sort of minor. At one point we were consolidating tables and the tournament director said, 'seats 1, 2 3 and 4 go to this new table'. At the new table, seats 1, 2, 3 and 4 were open. I was in seat three before, so I assumed I should sit in seat 3 again. But the aggressive and cocky guy in seat 2 told me that we could pick our own seats and he was moving to my left in seat 4. I thought that really sucked. Random reseating would have been more fair. But I didn't at all like the 'race to see who could sit down first'. That seemed a little too much like musical chairs to me.
Regarding my tournament play, I just tried to play good, solid, low variance poker, and tried not to get all in very often. We started with 98 players and I got as high as third in chips at one point. Then my K-K got cracked by 9-4 when I convinced a cocky kid to move all-in on me pre-flop. And then my A-K got cracked by K-8 offsuit who had raised pre-flop then mysteriously called my all-in re-raise. I was disappointed to bust in 21st spot. There were a lot of short stacks by this point, and I should have had a top three stack going into the final table. :mad:
I'll definitely go back. Does anyone happen to have a schedule for these quarterly events?
How much was it to get in the club and how much would first have been had you not been bad beat pokered those two times?
