dansheetz 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I'm sure this topic has already been covered, but there are so many sites running so many different kinds of satellites to the WSOP that I'm not sure where to put my efforts. I'm looking for peoples' opinions of the best way to satellite in online. I'm not looking to do it for 1 dollar or anything, I have a bankroll and am willing to invest some time and effort to do it. Please post your opinions on the best value in terms of buyin, chance of winning, and amount of time needed to pull it off.Extra credit for info on sites that are Mac compatible (OnGame sites, FullTilt, Bugsy's Club, etc.).Thanks ya'll.

Butcho22 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 How much do you have?I'd say the best way would be a $1000 1 table sat at the actual event. If you can't afford that...play the $160 double shootout on Stars. Not Mac but mayber you can play elsewhere? Link to post Share on other sites
ryansd 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Ya I tend to agree, the FTP 1k Monday qualifiers are great odds. Usually only like 55 people and top 4 or so get seats with down to 6 getting paid.You can satellite into that fairly easily by doing a $75 turbo right before or a regular $75 tourny before Monday.Im trying to do the same thing...the $200 or so buy in tournies seem to be long odds with only top 1 or 2 getting a seat.

dansheetz 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 The poster before you was talking about playing a 1K single table satellite at the Rio, where the WSOP is taking place... you're talking about Full Tilt Poker online. I'll check into the Monday thing on there, thanks.If I don't get in ahead of time, I will play the live satellites. However, the starting chips in those tourneys make it nearly a total crapshoot, so you have to get pretty lucky if you're gonna try to get in that way. I'd rather keep my total expenditure around 1K or less. Any other ideas? Link to post Share on other sites

BreadWinner 0 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I like the Party Poker Steps....They are 1 table SNG's. The winner of step 5 goes to WSOP ME but if you bust out you loop back to the same step or lower so if you loose you have a chance of winning your way back up. Link to post Share on other sites
pokerplayer24 0 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Stars has a 600$ buy in tourney that gets a ton of people every sunday. You can get into it via a 10$ rebuy tourney or an 80$ normal one. It seems to be the best way to get in. Link to post Share on other sites
