Thanks SpeedMix ! I'll do my best in Vegas, I hope I can go, although today I had a little surprise when I received an email from party poker saying that the spending money was in fact 1000$ and not the original 2000$ announced !? weird... Hope I can pay for plane ticket...

So you get the 12K package.
Just aswell cus they are still advertising it as a 12K package so dont know how the made the small error. to bankrollmob for putting in the extra, however they are still advertising it as 12k??? Ermm, is the plane not sorted for you?? surly its a package, flight, hotel, food, spends and buy in..

Well if it included flight and food it would be PERFECT... but when I received info from party poker they told me the flight and food weren't included... tought it's included in other packages from other poker companies... a bit unfortunate. But at least brm took care of the spending money situation
