Where to find the Best WSOP Satellites

Rank:

Every spring, there are scores of people clamoring to find a way to punch their ticket to the World Series of Poker. This year, the 2008 World Series of Poker will be no different as people are actively seeking out a cheaper way to get there. And a good option for doing this always comes in the form of a WSOP online satellite tournament.

There are plenty of poker sites that will offer these satellite tourneys too. Many make claims about the great rewards they are giving out or promise other incentives for those who take part in their satellite. However, none this year can even come close to the ones found at PokerStars.com.

To begin with, Poker Stars is already the largest poker site on the web which means that they should, in theory, be able to send the most people to the World Series of Poker. Well Poker Stars is not only proving this theory true but they are already sending 944 players to the WSOP and that number is only going up before the May 30th kick-off.

One of the ways to get a chance at one of the hundreds of WSOP seats offered by Poker Stars is to play in a FPP satellite tournament. Players can enter these Frequent Player Points satellites by getting in through a qualifier. And people can get in qualifiers with as little as 40 FPP. Those who do well in a FPP satellite could find themselves with a $12,500 package to the WSOP Main Event.

Another way to get to the WSOP is through a Steps Sit & Go satellite. With just $7.50 or 500 FPP, a person can get into one of the Step satellites. The cool thing is that if one gets first or second place in their Step, they advance to the next one. Make it all the way to Step six and you’ll be competing for one of the coveted WSOP seats.

Cash satellites are the third way for people to gain entry into the WSOP and the qualifiers for them are just $2. Score big in one of these qualifiers and you’re in one of the cash satellites with a chance at going to the World Series of Poker the cheap way.

With all of these options Poker Stars offers for a person to get to the WSOP, it’s hard not to label them the best of all the satellites out there offering WSOP glory. And with 944 people going from Poker Stars already, there’s still a great chance for many other players to climb aboard this excellent promotion.
