I had to make a tough decision between the excellent bids by both
Resorts and the Tropicana. A lot of people expressed support for each
site. In the end, Resorts seemed to fit our needs better for this
year.

There are still a lot of details to be worked out, and I'm heading
south for my daughter's wedding this week, so it will be a couple of
weeks before everything is known. The following is my best guess:

Thursday night, 3/20/97:
Gentlemen's smoker (not an official event)
This is being organized by Nolan Dalla. He's on a poker-vacation
for the next week or so. I expect he'll post information when he
gets back.

Friday, 3/21/97:
Craps tournament, $30+5
Blackjack tournament, $30+5
Reception (The cost of the reception will be covered by the $10
registration fee.)

Saturday:
No-limit hold'em tournament, $50+10
Banquet, $35

Sunday:
Limit stud tournament, $50+10

Don't hold me to the prices, but I think they're pretty close.

Room reservations: Resorts has reserved 75 rooms at $40 (a great
rate) for us on Friday and Saturday night) and a smaller number on
Thurdsay and Sunday. PLEASE don't call trying to make reservations
now. To keep things orderly, we'll use a special registration
procedure, and you will be given the "password" when your registration
check is received. I'll get the registration forms posted on the web
as soon as possible.
