XVP Majestic Star BJ tournament

Almost certainly an overlay on the BJ tourney. Even if completely filled not counting freebies would have been about a 60% overlay.
I will be there anyway tomorrow and find out but since the $100 tourneys would fill up almost immediately it seems strange that this would have trouble selling out.
I want to know when they reschedule. I hope it is not Rosh Hashanah weekend 9/23 and 9/24.

Did they give a reason? I considered investigating whether there would be
some sort of overlay, but entered a couple of the $100K holdem tournaments
instead. Certainly no overlay there, but the house juice is only about 10%
and the competition is not super strong.

Just got a call this morning. The tournament has been postponed. The
are honoring hotel reservations and giving the players $100 in "lucky
money" whatever that is. Since a post on VPfree indicates that
Fitsgerald's LV video poker has been trashed, I wonder how long before
the Star does likewise?

Interesting. I didn't put any value on the room or lounge pass. I'll get
my sharpened #2 out and play with the numbers if I get a look at the
structure.
