Location:
Play N Trade Waterford
504 N. Alafaya Tr. Suite 111
Orlando, FL, 32828

Phone Number - 407-482-8655

Play N Trade is right down Alafaya Tr. From Gigabits, a few miles down the road.

Across The Street from the main Waterford Lakes plaza in the Waterford Towers. This is the plaza with Home Depot and Circuit City inside it. If you end up in the plaza with Target and Bestbuy this is the wrong one, go across the street. We are near Buffalo Wild Wings in the plaza.


Directions:

Coming off 417 (toll road):

Get off at the exit for the University of Central Florida, University Blvd.

Go straight down university heading for UCF. Hang a right at the intersection of University Blvd. and Alafaya Trail.

Go down Alafaya Trail past Colonial Dr. (AKA 50). We will be the plaza on the right side of the street.


Coming off 408 (toll road)

Get off at the exit for Alafaya Trail - Take a left onto Alafaya Trail. Hang a left into the plaza with Home Depot (It will be very close to the exit of 408).


*NOTE* Play N Trade of Waterford will provide some TVs and WII systems but we will need more so we can hold friendlies and make the tournament go smoothly.

why is there such extreme pot ****, pnt doesn't lose business like gigs so why is there pot ****??
You're so wronnggg

I don't think there is bad pot ****.

%50 is bad.

Let me check again.

I think their payout is actually pretty good.


Yea. 70% is fine. It's better than a door fee.

I would tend to think that 70% payout is not bad.

If you do the match that means 10.50 goes to the pot and 4.50 goes to the venue. You could instead make it 10 dollars entry and 5 dollar door fee and thus less goes to the pot. Or make it 15 entry with 100% and a 5 dollar door fee, but that costs you all more.

If this place starts holding tourneys regularly I'd never be tempted to go anywhere further than 2 mins away(gigs) for smash again.

Two places less than a mile away, too good.

Really hope I can go to this one, all day thing might be a problem, specially considering I'd only be in Singles, but I'll try to be there. I must prove that other's besides MK/snakes/DDD's can win! Especially MK's...I don't like them no more lol.

Any idea if there is an "at the latest starting time"? So far I haven't been to a tourney that started within 2 hours of the original planned time, so I just thought I'd check so I can show up late too if need be.

I think this tourney needs more hype. It's another tourney venue...it'd be really cool to get a good number of people there. Finals might be an issue, but we'll see.

You guys should also hold melee. It will help with attendance :).

It will change the attendance from 20 people to 30, i'd bet.
