    Not sure, interestingly (but not very), they are offering accomodation at the Palms instead of the Rio.

    Yea they just put the $10k in your account, cos Harrah's still not allowing third party's to buy you in.

    most of the packages are $12,500 which is the buy-in plus 2,500 travel and expenses,

    They also give you Hotel at the palms which is outside the 12,500 package (if you dont wanna stay in the palms they give you $1000 extra)

    The hotel is for 8 nights (if you last longer they will continue to pay for your hotel)

    The above is correct. Although if you win a second package the expenses are credited to your account but the buy in is in W$.

    they are also offering a TV bonus, if you get to the TV table, they'll give you a couple of $k.

    They will also give you a bonus for final table which will include a contract for buy-ins etc.

    Its really good offer if go well in the event.

    yea guaranteed 10k+ if you sit at the featured table (more if you're a supernova and depending on how deep it is into the tourney)

    pretty crappy bonus if you win though compared to FT, stars = 1m Tilt = 10m

    I'm pretty sure poker stars were the exception as ladbrokes PP and others all had qualifiers

    Harrahs came out last year and said they werent accepting 3rd party buyins and that they never had whatever that means.
