PKR WSOP Satellites
PKR is putting up 12 prize packages this year for
the World Series of Poker Main Event totaling
$150,000 in free prizes. On June 15 there will be a
$625 buy-in tournament with 12 packages guaranteed,
and there could be even more packages if the prize
pool gets large enough. However, if you're a sharp
player you can satellite in without paying the $625
buy-in, and we're going to show you just how to do
that.
The first, and simplest way to qualify in is by
the monthly freeroll satellite that PKR hosts. It is
25,000 PKR points to get in, and 15 players are
guaranteed a seat into the $625 finale, but even
more could make it if the prize pool gets large
enough. This is the only totally free route to
winning a WSOP seat.
Another direct way to qualify into the Finale
tournament is through a weekly $73 tournament. One
in ten entrants will make it to the $625 finale, and
these tournaments run every Friday at 20:00 GMT.
There are also a ton of ways to qualify into that
weekly $73 tournament, including non stop $8 sit and
go's with the winner advancing, daily MTT
qualifiers, and satellites that lead into those
daily MTT qualifiers. For full information, read the
article at the PKR.com website.
What's great about this package is that it's not
just a buy-in to the Main Event, it covers
everything you need to play. Since it's $12,500 and
the buy-in is only $10,000 you'll have $2,500 for
lodging, travel, food, and other expenses, which
should more than cover it.
Make sure you are actually available to play in
the WSOP before trying to qualify, because the seats
are non transferable, and if you have to back out
you won't receive any compensation. Also, you have
to be 21, not 18, to play in this promotion, so make
sure you take note of that.
