SUMMARY:Choctaw Landing Qualifier Round for $50\,000 Cash – 2025 Choctaw Casinos Regional Blackjack Tournament
DESCRIPTION:BJTUSA Added Details / Comments\nIMPORTANT NOTE: There are two separate listings for this tournament in the BJTUSA event calendar. This is intentional so that each entry contains the correct venue name\, location\, and contact information for the respective casino and on the correct dates of play. \nTo help avoid confusion\, date listings for this tournament span from the first remaining (as of this date\, August 9\, 2025)\, qualifying event through the final weekend of play\, which includes the championship round. Please review the body of these rules carefully to determine the actual dates of play\, as they differ between the two participating Choctaw properties. \nThis event offers multiple qualifying rounds at both:\n• Choctaw Landing Casino\n• Choctaw Casino – Grant\, OK \nIMPORTANT: The qualifying round rules differ between these two properties. The tournament rules were provided via correspondence with Choctaw Landing Casino and they are\, to the best of our knowledge accurate for both above properties.  We have made minor edits\, only for clarifications.
