It is my understanding that you only need to be 18 to play in the PCA, so at 19 you should be fine. You do need a passport to get into the Bahamas, so make sure you have one or can get one fast enough.

There is a super-sat scheduled the night before the main event starts, so it is possible to win a seat once you're there.

To be certain this information is accurate, I strongly suggest you check with support@pokerstars.com.

Hey Greg,

You never have if you are an American citizen, but you will after January 23rd.

January 23? That is after the tournament. Makes a difference if it is January 23 or January 1. The tournament starts January 5.

I think the original deadline was January 1, but they may have extended it to January 23. Not entirely a stupid question.
