KUPoker5 0 Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 I was wondering about the format of WSOP Circuit events. I see from a lot of the schedules that they have satellites and different Hold'em event numbers with their own buy-in amounts. Then at the end of the schedule they have a championship event with a huge buy-in. So how does this work? Do you win one of the events and then move on to the championship event? Do you win any money for winning any of the individual events (for instance $300+$40 Hold'em)? I know you only get a ring if you win the championship, but I was just curious on what you get for the lesser levels.Yes, I have googled this with no reliable results. Any info would be appreciated.

For example Im playing in the 500 dollar in tunica on Wed..Last years winner of the same event took home 88K and there was like 500 people in it give or take. If you do win the event I think an entry in to WSOPC main event is part of the prize.....They also have mega sats that are around 350 and for every 5100 in the prize pool thats how many people get an entry into the main event. They also run single table sats all day long. Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for clearing that up! Link to post Share on other sites

bengy3 0 Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 You win Goldfish crackers in the prelim events. If you are a big fan and would enjoy thousands of dollars of Goldfish I would say go for it. If not, there might be better things to do with your money. Link to post Share on other sites
KUPoker5 0 Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 NP..You playing in Tunica this week?No, I'm going to play at the Horseshoe Council Bluffs circuit later this month. Good luck in Tunica, though!You win Goldfish crackers in the prelim events. If you are a big fan and would enjoy thousands of dollars of Goldfish I would say go for it. If not, there might be better things to do with your money.Well, I do love goldfish...especially the spicy ones. If I could fill a room with my winnings worth of goldfish and then dive into them like Scrooge McDuck..then I have lived a complete life. Link to post Share on other sites
DCJ001 0 Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 the main event's just a bigger buy in tournament. they all payout about the top 10% of the field. the winners of each tournament win a ring too. I know a couple of people that have won $500 and $1000 circuit tournaments and they won rings plus $46000 and $66000 each Link to post Share on other sites
