I prefer Vegas over NO.

I also like the idea of doing this in true convention style. Maybe work a deal with the MGM for a block of rooms at a discount plus an additional poker rate. Plus comps to the “Grand Buffet”

I really like the idea of regional events at places such as Tunica, AC, Foxwoods,NO etc. We even have a couple of casinos here in STL.

My preference is whatever weekend I can get approved by the wife. I’ll have to start earning brownie points now, thanks for the heads up.

October in Vegas sounds good — but please note that 10/3-10/4 (Fri-Sat) is Rosh Hashanah and 10/12-10/13 (Sun-Mon) is Yom Kippur.

I am with Blood. Anytime, anywhere they have beer.

Well, I was going to say December, but it looks like I’ve already been outvoted.

Having missed the last one, I’ll be there no matter when it is.

October for me, either date. Being an odd year I’ll be out of the country during December.

Vegas works for me and I’ll make the date work as well.

Did a little poking around and pokerpages.com has the DBNAC listed as happening at the Bellagio, but the WPT site has the venue listed as TBD. I would be surprised if we had a WPT event here in Canada, despite the lobbying being done by some of the casinos.

I did a quick search of CPF (http://www.pokerforum.ca/forum/index.php) and there was a rumour (http://www.pokerforum.ca/forum/index.php?topic=2231.0) floating around last year that they’d be holding the event somewhere in Ontario, but hardly anything I can credit.

And I’m probably far more interested in this topic than the other readers here, so I’ll just let it go.

Wah? The Brunson event is being held at Fallsview? How could I not have heard about that? I’ll definitely be there if that is the case.

I’ll probably follow the party wherever is leads, but would probably choose Vegas if forced to make a decision.
