Default Re: WSOP Satellite question

I don't have the exact structures but I played one RAZZ single table sattelite (and won it even though i was already bought into the event) at the RIO the day of my event but it was a 5PM starting event, not an early one. they run different sattelites in every game for all sorts of different buy-ins depending on the upcoming tournies at that time but they all give the same tourney entry chips for the winners. The one I played was a $225 single table sat to the $1500 RAZZ event but they were also running $1000 sattelites to the ME what seemed like everynight and this was at least 15 days before the ME even started. Also you don't win a buy-in to a particular event you win tournament entry chips in increments of $500 so for my RAZZ satellite win I recieved 3 $500 tournament entry chips which I sold to some people who were standing in line to buy in to a different event. You can play all the sattelites you want and accumulate all the tourney entry chips you want and use them to enter any of the WSOP tourneys taking place at the RIO but they have no cash value so either plan on using them os selling them to people who are doing direct buy-ins.

Also when we got HU the other guy wanted a chop and wanted me to give him $750 cash and I could take the chips but I had nearly a 5/1 chip lead on him and refused. I won the chips and sold em.


That is my expierience with the sattelites @ the RIO during the WSOP.

Sorry if this post isn't composed well i am in the dark on my laptop with 4 tables going so it's pretty fun to try and type right now.
