Stars WSOP sat info
 

some prelim info, sats begin Saturday.

A couple of things that jumped out:

On Sunday, July 16 at 4:30pm ET our Sunday Million is stepping aside to give you 150 chances to go to the World Series of Poker. That is minimum $1,800,000 guarantee! Satellites for this $370 buy-in, No Limit Hold'em event, start at only $5.50.

Hotel accommodations - Minimum 9 nights, July 27 - Aug. 4 [...] Hotel accommodations will be extended free of charge for any players still in the tournament after August 4, 2006.

*anyone know how Party's hotel setup works?

- Theres monthly TLB freerolls, a daily 150+10 DS, daily 30+3 rebuy, and weekly 615+35 MTT.

Some interesting VIP freerolls. (look quite good to me)

Also, there are some minor FT incentive you can check out at the link. Full tilt's are much higher.

EDIT: Something which struck me from the FAQ:

Q. How do you distribute leftover prize money in the WSOP final qualifying satellites?

A. Rather than give away a single lump sum of cash, we're returning as many buy-ins as we can.

Only one? That can't be right...

July 16???? Why wait so long to run this? Don't you think that they will lose a lot of people that qualify on other sites?

I see they got rid of the "broke Moneymaker" syndrom. (regarding moneymaker considering throwing the tournament in order to get the $8000 remainder.

New ruling. All remainder money is spread amongst top non-qualifers in the amount of the buyin. So in the Moneymaker example the top 5 players would still get WSOP buyins, but now instead of #6 getting $8000, 6th through 18th would get $650 with 19th getting $200.

You can satellite into the $370 buy-in. They'll run these satellites like crazy, I think. Satellite buy-ins start at $5.50.

Just think of it... you buy into a satellite for $5.50, win a seat in the $370 tourney, and then make a cool $1,000,000 at the WSOP. That's a 181,817.2% return. Sign me up.
