Re: stars 150 seats guaranteed
The 650's took 7-8+ hours, but they had 30 minute levels instead of 20 and the bubble took almost 3 of those, so I'm thinking this won't take THAT long. We'll see.

Re: stars 150 seats guaranteed
I dont know if people understand the magnitude of this satellite today... a certain site that has been pushing the WSOP hard all year had 262 Qualifiers as of today (they have a big sat coming too) this satellite ALONE could give around 200 seats!! Just huge! This satellite alone would have filled about 25% of the field that Moneymaker beat.

Re: stars 150 seats guaranteed
Justin, I'm not sure we all care about the success of economic success of PokerStars. It's a nice acheivement for Pokerstars, the question is are we better off fighting this gigantic fields.

There are billions of bad players that satellited into this, lots of 'dead' money who will feel like they'll need to gamble like crazy to get a seat. I'm going to play solid poker and win one of them. Period. Brad

Re: stars 150 seats guaranteed
Oh yeah, free Pstars Silver status if you play today.
I made it on a $7.50 rebuy last night, and I already have my WSOP seat w/Stars, so now I'm debating whether to play or not. I expect lots of awful play since SOOOOOO many people satted their way into this, the question is do I want to endure this marathon? Whether I play or not, this should be the ultimate example of Adanthar's theory on the most +EV big event satelites.
