The World Series of Poker is rapidly approaching, and online poker rooms are working feverishly to release information about their qualifiers and incentives. PartyPoker has had WSOP satellites running since February 14th, and they will continue until June 19th. Their WSOP Main Event package is worth $14,000 and includes the Main Event buy-in, $2,000 in spending money, and hotel accommodation for eight nights.
The best thing about the WSOP Main Event is that players of all skill levels are welcome to participate. Those without large bankrolls have the opportunity to play in very cheap qualifiers with most online sites, and PartyPoker is no exception. In fact, PartyPoker WSOP satellites start as freerolls, requiring no real money at all! Every day at 13:20 ET and 19:20 ET there are freeroll qualifiers that award 25 seats to the $2 WSOP Sub Qualifier Speed Rebuy.
The $2 WSOP Sub Qualifier Speed Rebuy is one of three daily satellite tournaments that awards seats to the $80 WSOP satellite qualifier. Others include the $4 Speed Rebuy and the $9 Speed Qualifier.
The $75+$5 event takes place daily as well, and it awards seats to the $700+$50 WSOP satellite. You will find this tournament at 15:10 ET daily and 20:40 ET. You can also find a Sunday turbo version at 12:10 ET. 1 in every 10 players will win their way to the $750 qualifier.
It’s the $750 qualifier on Sundays that awards packages to the WSOP worth $14,000. The big satellite takes place at 15:20 ET and award one package for every 20 players.
If you decide to download free poker on PartyPoker for the first time, making your first deposit will get you into a WSOP First Depositors Freeroll. These freerolls take place on March 26th, April 30th, and May 28th. The top 10 players in each freeroll will receive an entry into the $750 WSOP satellite.
PartyPoker was one of the first sites to introduce WSOP qualifiers, so it is safe to say that they will be sending plenty of their players to Vegas in July. For the chance to experience the poker player’s dream, you should definitely be planning your trip to Vegas now. Whether you qualify online or travel to the Series on your own dime, the opportunity to score huge will be more than worth the trouble!
