I would have been able to go if I had had more notice.  Encourage King's Games to advertise in advance!

Yes, not to much time to prepare, I will try to go anyway, but I have a Birthday party the friday night and it would depnd in the hangover or in my success with any girl.... ok more likely will depend on the hangover .

I'll consider coming, though I am wary of a tournament that you have to win in order to come out ahead.

Just FYI, you're competing against multiple tournaments on Long Island this weekend:

They're standard events, but I'm expecting 50+ from Long Island alone for the Baneslayer tournament.  There's also the snow to consider. 

Also, not to be too critical, but at 20 people, it looks like the store's cut is 40% or so.  That seems a little high.
