You know im in phil, wouldn't miss it!!!!

 

[Jim Coastin]

Count me in! Let me know if u need some assistance setting up or with equipment. I can bring some extras if needed.

 

[9.95]

awesome guys! Glad to hear it! Jim, I'll let you know if we need anything. PM me and I'll get you my phone number so we can talk about anything needed.

 

[JohnyCageWins]

You should schedule it for a different day then the $21,000 PDP tournament!

As a Long Islander I'd certainly attend if it wasn't for the conflict in schedule.

 

[9.95]

To be honest, not many people from LI are going to the $21k tournament... but I will be running more of these, most likely on a monthly or bi-monthly basis, so you'll definitely be able to make it to future ones.

 

[JohnyCageWins]

Missing Vegas just wasn't an option for me, MK, gambling, crazy noteriety and and easy 10K were just too much to pass up. Look forward to seeing you at one of the future LI events.

That's awesome that you'll be coming so far... looking forward to seeing you again.

After this tournament, I will definitely be promoting my tournaments on SRK as well.

 

[Dreamcatcher]

I will be there, as long as the cab fare isn't a fortune. I will be in NYC most of this weekend for my brother's graduation, but I will actually be staying in Jersey for the trip.

 

[9.95]

Dreamcatcher... wow... gonna be great to finally meet you. We have people coming from NJ... so pm me your cell number and I'll talk to you and see if we can work out some kind of ride.

 

[Dreamcatcher]

I'll PM you my number, just shoot me a text. If all else fails, my brother did just offer me a ride.

 

[CarmineMac]

I'm stoked to see stuff finally happening on LI! I only found out about this yesterday, so I may not be able to attend. If you continue these, count me in for basically all of them going forward. I'm only about 5 minutes away from the venue, so I'll do whatever I can to support these events.

 

[Paul Santoro]
