Re: No 3rd party registration for the WSOP
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Does anybody know if it's possible to sell this "Main Event 10k Token", therefore making entries transferable? ie: Sell the chip to some guy in line who's buying in anyways for 95% or something. [/ QUOTE ] Very important question. I think a lot of casual players like me would prefer to win a non-transferable seat for tax reasons. [/ QUOTE ] As stated above, it is technically not within the rules to do it. Last year, as people were always trying to play satellites and sell their chips to players, the staff really started to cut down on people doing it. I would assume they would be even more strict this year, since they will be anticipating it...but who knows really.

Doesn't it still work out to a $10,000 win and (assuming you don't make the money) a $10,000 loss? I can see if you won the entry one year for play the next how it might make a difference, but not otherwise. What am I missing?

Re: No 3rd party registration for the WSOP
I'd prefer a non-transferable chip for reasons of being able to explain to my wife why I can't sell it and use it to pay bills or for other such unimportant expenses.

Okay, let's say I win 8 seats on FTP, and 20 seats on Stars. Then one on Bodog or whatever. How [censored] am I if I make the Final Table? [/ QUOTE ] Laughed out loud a few times.

Re: No 3rd party registration for the WSOP

Seriously though, I'm not sure I should even try to satellite in online, what with the contract [censored] you are forced to sign. [/ QUOTE ] You're not forced to sign any contract. If FTP says you have to do this or that because of some implied online contract, you just tell the judge that you didn't understand it. Any lawyer will tell you that. I'm not a lawyer, I just play one on the interwebs.

Re: No 3rd party registration for the WSOP
So you're saying if I win a seat on Stars, and then don't wear their stuff at the Final Table, I will not get [censored] legally?
This is not what I have been led to believe...(unless you negotiate out of the contract)
