When I spoke to Mike Zuglan a day ago he said that he had over 100 paid entries to date and was expecting more checks from players that had already called and said they were mailng their entry.

Again, this $25,000 added event requires a pre-entry and is limited to the first 128 paid entries so if there is anyone out there thinking about playing you need to contact Mike Zuglan immediately!

Don't procrastinate.., the previous ten Turning Stone events were filled to capacity with many players being "shut out."

It won't be long before he has another full field with a waiting list!

For those that have never been to this, you need to go. It's a very well run tournament with some awesome matches.

For food, if you don't try Joel's Steakhouse up the road, you don't know what you are missing. I highly recommend it. I think pushinfaders will as well.

Bruce: Hope to see you there again in August.

Yep, there are a lot of good places right at the casino. But if you want a good steak and a beer... well :D

We went there for dinner on Saturday in February's tourney. The place was packed.
