Defeat 12 players and go to WSOP 2008
However, at PokerStars, each sit-and-go is very, very small. Only four players compete for the one seat in the next round. So you have to defeat three opponents four times. Where else can you win a $12,000 ticket by defeating 12 players in a $55 competition?!
Obviously this is no given either, but it's certainly an interesting proposition. The buy-in is $55 and of course, to gather the necessary $12,000 it takes more than one table. We're talking 64-table sit-and-gos, featuring 256 entrants.
WSOP satellites always waiting to fill up
These exciting WSOP satellites run continuously, but you may have to wait a while before the requested 256 players show up and the tournament can start.
It's a bit surprising that Poker Stars, the home of true poker and inventor of deep stack tournaments, launches WSOP satellites with five minute blind periods.
But, if you're a fan of turbo tournaments and don't mind the increased luck factor they entail, by all means double-click on your Poker Stars icon and throw yourself into the WSOP turmoil!
