WPEX : WSOP Tourneys

LoyalFrush · #1 04-23-2006, 03:46 AM

WPEX is offering "WSOP entries to the $1500 NLHE event".
Reading the rules they don't seem to offer any travel expenses or any pocket money. In fact, they just give you the $1500 into your account and say if you want to enter the event do it yourself, if you just want to keep the cash then just keep the cash. So it is basically a winner take all $1500 guaranteed tourney or am I missing something here? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I suppoose the main difference from normal tournaments would be that in this case it's winner takes all...

Is one entry guaranteed or depends on the entries? What's the buy-in?
