[h=2]32Red Poker (Microgaming Network Wide?) World Series of Poker 2014[/h] What better way to spend a week away this summer than in a luxury hotel, playing poker in a city literally so bright it can be seen from space, rubbing shoulders with countless megastars, world-class poker players and poker fans all on a quest for the same goal - a World Series of Poker winner's bracelet. Vegas, Baby! That could be you - qualify for less than €5 for a WSOP package worth €3000... [h=3]€3,000 Package[/h]

Re: W.S.O.P. Sat. Thread 2014 Hey guys What the hell is going on with the Microgaming WSOP sats? Very few games, (most get canceled due to lack of players I see), no guarantee so because of few players no tickets to upper levels whenever anything starts, terrible times... I don't get it, thy used to be one of the best venues to qualify?? Fred

Re: W.S.O.P. Sat. Thread 2014 I like the way 888 are running their satellites this year. There are $1050 qualifiers every Sunday. There's a six-step scheme of satellites daily (more times daily at the lower levels, but I don't know the precise schedule). 1) $0.01 rebuy 2) $0.10 rebuy/addon 3) $1 freezeout 4) $5 freezeout 5) $30 freezeout 6) $160 freezeout At each level you're playing for a ticket to the next level, and the tickets last 14 days (last year you were playing for a seat in a particular tournament, which made planning a nightmare: before you registered for a satellite you had to check you could play the whole sequence of tournaments it might lead to). Tickets to the main qualifiers last a month. The structure is reasonably slow, even at lower levels, and they seem to be getting a good number of players, so that there are 10-20 qualifiers from each tournament at the lower levels, and at the lower levels there are heaps of players who don't understand satellite strategy (I was short stack on the bubble with about 15 to qualify. Not a problem when ~9th placed player went all in and ~12th placed player called with AJ and busted!) I've experimented over the last few days buying in at levels ranging from (2)-(4). I've done pretty well so far, and from about a $16 outlay I currently have a $160 ticket plus a $1 and $5 ticket.

Re: W.S.O.P. Sat. Thread 2014 Good news, 888 now has also a WSOP side event package on offer, for event 60. I believe the package value was USD 4500 or so, the route to qualify is the same as for the main event: 6 levels up to a USD 1050 final, where the chances to get a package are great. Of course, you need to reach the 1050 level first, from the previous level of USD 160 and that might not be so simple :) GL everyone trying for it, I'll most probably give it a go too Fred

Re: W.S.O.P. Sat. Thread 2014

will probably have a go at these
Officially decided I'm giving up on these freerolls. Won't be able to make the 1000 raked hands; Barely managed to reach 230 of those playing Blaze (and actually making a relatively good profit in the process) but this is so BOOOORING Cash games are not for me :) Good luck to all raking in the hands for the freerolls

Re: W.S.O.P. Sat. Thread 2014 Cheers Bart! I've given up on going there this year after going through my budget to try and satellite in :( Very frustrating as I was in a few finals, but not been very close really. Good luck to anyone still trying, and to the lucky ones actually going Fred
