Just confirmed - beginning this morning at 10:00 AM the poker room at South Coast is holding daily no limit Hold’em tournaments. The buy-in is $37, and players start with $1,500 chips. Signups start at 9:00 AM.
The $37 total entry fee is at the low range of Vegas poker tournament options. The majority of poker players in Vegas are low limit players, so my feeling is that poker tournaments with buy-ins less than $50 have the greatest likelihood of attracting players.
The source I spoke with at South Coast said that he would be really happy if they were able to get at least two tables going, and perhaps grow from there.
Here is the complete tournament breakdown.
$37 buy-in ($30 to pool, $5 to house, $2 to dealers)
81% payback.
