Winning a seat, WSOP 06, Whats your Plan?

illNana · #1 04-05-2006, 11:33 AM

Mine is to play a lot of the stars 3+R and 11+R to satellite into as many Sunday $650's as I can.

Anyone like the shoot outs? I have no idea how to play them.

Also does anyone know of any good books on satellites?

Thanks

I have like 1200 $W. I wonder if I somehow win like $10,000W if Stars will just let me trade it in for a seat...

I just checked it out and the answer seems to be Yes.

I've been playing the $16 double shootouts with little success. Played like 20 of them with 1 win and 3 cashes. Went out in 80th out of 600 when i played the $615. I am determined to go to the wsop or go broke trying.

You'll win 1 seat in 30 tries if your very good at the $16 level, so you shouldn't be dissapointed.

well, sheeeeeeeet. They won't do it.

Hello Matt,

You must either win the WSOP prize package through a satellite or if
you
are a Supernova VIP you may buy in directly with your Frequent Player
Points.

If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Just earn W$12,000 and sell them at like 85-90% of value and buy in direct. Then you can wear your own gear advertising whatever [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
