Dates are Aug. 13-19.

OK so here's the short side of the story, or one of them.
Last year for the Worlds 14.1 i had gotten my buddy in to play the event, he happened to be placed in the group with Rhys Chen owner of The Spot.
So the morning of that Wednesday Rhys was scheduled to play my friend, apparently Rhys was running late and stuck in traffic. Rhys puts up a public post onto facebook for the world to see stating "Stuck in traffic, in route to the Worlds 14.1 Tournament to play the worst player in the tournament".
Who the **** does that, that is not something you broadcast out for the world to see, i have a screenshot of the post if you'd all like to see it.. A bunch of us called him on it and he denied the whole thing.
At that point we all decided to stop promoting him or his room for any events that he holds. and to never patron his business.

Nanuet is a drive, but the parking could be worth it.
Steinway had a lot of distractions and considering there was no ref to watch the Earl vs Strickland match. It helps to sell the new location.
I hope parking is much better in Nanuet.
It was neither Earl or Jayson's fault there was no ref at the table, I will never play in a major event again - without a referee - not interested in the drama nor do I find it even a little funny.
