Probably 5,000 chips and 30 minute levels like last year. There is a rules document approved by the gaming commission that has all the details and should be available from the poker room.

That was for the 1K sat, was the 2.5K sat the same? Since I am not at Fallsview I was hoping someone would know for sure..
Too bad you couldn't pick up one of the $1k vouchers for $700 like Blackmagicz, at Fallsview today. Be interesting to see what the $2.5k vouchers are worth at the start of the tournament.
Yes, that was too bad. I would have been happy to get one for $1k at any point this past month, but Im over it.

Might not make the trip, thought the 2.5k was on Thursday. I have a girl visiting this weekend. If she doesnt want to go to Niagara and play slots / watch poker we're just going to play in bed and watch movies & Pebble beach.
GL to everyone still in the 1K!

Have you tried confirming with the poker room by phone? The so-called 'Poker Hotline" I posted in my OP usually has a service rep with no clue about poker, but hopefully they can connect you to a floor person who has a clue.

Don't tell her dad you play poker.

I played in the super sat yesterday for the $ 2500 seat and won.
Last night we were at the bar with betrthanphil, steveKerr, blackmajicz, Wes and about 4 ro 5 others betting on sports and other degenerate things and in walks Sir Watts, Vekked and Timex. Good conversation and lots of drinks. Good time!
Could not help but think of all the poker brains in the room!
Follow me on Twitter RAM_Eh for a picture.
Anyways could not play the $2500 today so I sold it to a friend of betrthanphil and booked a good profit for the day.
Tino Trinci (TD of FPC) was just on FAN590 and they said they're considering going with 2 Day 1s or expand to cap of 600 to 800 for the $1K. Take it for what it's worth..it is Fallsview we're talking about.
Here are the numbers for the record.
$2.5K event - 563 players (600 max)
$5K event - 229 players
Total of 1,392 player registrations compared to 1,223 in 2011, 14% increase.
Trinci claims that they are trying to have an additional series approved and to have MP3 players allowed at the tables. The interviewers failed to ask about additional cash game tables or the voucher scalpers who lost money. While it looks like Fallsview is not interested in hosting a WPT or even a High Heels Poker Tour event, at least the 2013 FPC has already been approved for January.
My updated resolution for the Year of the Dragon: even if playing at PartyPoker continues to be much better than playing live by the end of this year, make the sacrifice to drive to Fallsview & play in the $1K event and satellites for the higher buy-ins.
