Wizard World Chicago Forum Dinner

[arexcrooke]

,

I think so. Can I make a final decision on Friday afternoon?

Whats buy-in?

[SharpComics.com]

Friday afternoon might be too late....it all depends on how many have already paid up. I think the room holds around 50-60 max......I'll find out more on Thursday....check your PM's in a minute....

This better be good Steak for $75. That's half a nite's drinking money.

 

 

[VintageComics]

Ah, screw it ... throw this curmudgeon's name on the list, as well. (thumbs u

 

But yer not gettin' my money until the show.

 

And tell Borock he owes me a drink for last year.

 

I will buy you 2 drinks!

 

Glad you are coming!!!!

 

 

 

I can see it now at the con report: "CGC president Steve Borock got so hammered at a local dinner Saturday night that they had to fly him home to Sarasota early. Unfortunately all onsite grading has been delayed." a slightly green looking CGC employee was quoted as saying.

I'd like in on any poker tourney!

[Dale Roberts]

Poker tourney is Friday. Talk to me or Harley early, as expect to reach capacity pretty quickly this year. 50 spots only.

[Foolkiller]

Ahhh... this is Harley's game -- okay. I have to come by and look at a book any way at your booth Dale -- I have to just check with someone to make sure I'm not tied up... enjoyed the last time I played -- it was $80 buy in last time -- should wratchet up to like $100 or so with rebuys until a certain cut off...

[MrBedrock]

Rebuys!

[Foolkiller]

I won my firm's tournament recently and made a killing (like over $3k) because there were so many rebuys. I was only going to buy in once -- and got very lucky at the end... but the 2nd, 3rd and 4th prizes were very nice -- and it really pumps up the pot a bit... we had just under 50 people... just a thought whether I can play or not... but I'm hoping to.

If anyone's interested, on Thursday night there will likely be a group of hungry and thirsty people heading to the Ram which is about a mile away from the Convention Center. Went last year and it was a good time. The Ram is your basic brewpub restaurant: the beer is cold, comes in LARGE glasses, oh and the food's good too!

 

We'll probably gather close to Preview Night Closing around Donut or Brad's (Klozd) booth and carpool over.

Large glasses?

[Sharkey]

Large glasses?

 

mugs, steins, yards, whatever. It's cold and it's good.
