Schedule

I have hotel at the Monte Carlo from Thursday, July 27th, until Saturday, August 5th. However, if I am still in the tournament on August 4th, I will get an additional five days hotel from August 6th to August 10th.

There are 8000 expected entrants, ~800 of which make the money.

"Day 1": Split into four days, July 28th-July 31st, called A, B, C, and D. Each of these four days 2000 play down to 800. 3200 remain. I play July 31st, day D.

"Day 2": Split into two days, August 1st-August 2nd. 1600 remaining players from days A & B play down to 700 on August 1st, and the other remaining players from days C & D play down to 700 on August 2nd. So if I make it past the first day, I would play August 2nd.

Day 3: Friday, August 4th. If I make it to this day, I get an additional 5 days hotel, possibly extending my trip to August 10th. On this 3rd day, 1400 players play down to 600. Again, approximately 800 get paid a minimum of something like $12,000-$15,000.

Day 4: Saturday, August 5th, 600 play down to 300.

Day 5: Sunday, August 6th, 300 play down to 150.

Day 6: Monday, August 7th, 150 play down to 60.

Day 7: Tuesday, August 8th, 60 play down to 27.

Day 8: Wednesday, August 9th, 27 play down to 9.

Day 9: Thursday, August 10th, 9 play to the end.
