Little loop hole: they say, "W$ can be used to register in any W$ special event", but they never say that this includes satellites to special events.

Nevertheless, I'm pretty sure this is just an oversight. You can buy into "special event" sats with w$.

You can use W$ to buy in to pretty much anything under the "Events" tab, including satellites. The only exceptions (so far as I know, which is quite far in this case) are to SOME of the dummy tournaments listing qualifiers.

no - and no, but he said he will talk to someone in security for me. and it doesn't help that EMcWilliams is ignoring me.

WCOOP cash sats will take W$, that's for sure.

As for the satellite scheme, it's still being worked on - there will be a little something for everyone in it, I assure you. Also, we took great pains last year to continue to make modifications to the system throughout qualification to give our players as many chances as possible to get into the events. We will no doubt continue to do so this year... no worries!

We even had one guy qualify to the main event for under $20 (yes, in a cash satellite)... who then went on to win $12,500.

I'm very glad to see lots of people excited to see WCOOP gearing up!

All the best,

I like how there's often 2 events each day, you should even think about making it so there is 2 events every day, with one of them always being a holdem event.

That seems like a winning formula, as long as you don't make some players play in a tent/oven [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Definitely 30min levels please!!! And I would love to see some sort of "combo package" satellite to the last 3 or 4 events. Or maybe one for all the NLHE events. Keep up all the great work Bryan!!!
