I'd say I get treated about the same in any event nowadays. The really experienced players don't pay me much attention. The recreational players seem glad to see me at their table regardless of the venue or field size. For them it adds something extra to the game, a game they are mostly playing for fun, rather than as a serious money-making venture. And more and more often there are players who have no idea who I am. That can lead to some funny incidents. I hit a draw or something and beat a guy, and he starts proclaiming how badly I played the hand, how clueless I am, etc. And the rest of the table is just laughing at him, and he has no idea why.

I seldom get autograph requests anymore, because people who used to want that now prefer a selfie. Still plenty of those. And I'm happy to do any of that stuff, as long as I don't have a live hand in front of me.

I can only speak in regard to Venetian and Wynn as I haven’t played the other series in years. But for those two, unless something has changed recently, you can only register in person the night before when registration closes for the current flight. This ranges from like 7:30pm to as late as 9:30pm for some events.

I know the Venetian is opening a brand new room this fall, and hopefully they will have a new computer system which allows more convenient pre-reg. But we’ll have to see.

As for tourneys, there is all sorts of advice, but I would recommend you pick events and starting days that work best with your schedule, as opposed to worrying about things like field size and strength. Make sure you look at things like when/how long dinner breaks are since different series do it very differently. Plan your dining ahead of time if you intend to eat a sit down meal at a restaurant.

Also, if this is your first trip and you want to get as much poker in as possible, you might be tempted to play every single day and as long as possible. This would be fine, but if you’re amenable to it, I would recommend you take a little time off from poker and do something else in Vegas or the vicinity. There are plenty of things to do for all tastes. It will do your mind good to not be grinding away for 10 days straight.

ORLEANS SCHEDULE :-

Just had a very productive exchange of email correspondence with one of the people at the Orleans. I hope they won’t mind me posting here the very informative response that was sent to me:-

I'm hoping to release the full schedule Friday, I'm just waiting on my bosses approval
