It would be fantastic to win this and i will be having a go for sure. A friend of mine won one of these packages many years ago and he has always said that it was the greatest thrill of his life playing in the main event

Nice advertising coup from triple eight. But of cause the number of competitors for the package will be enormously high, do to the extremly low entry fee. So one can expect freeroll type of play, at least early on in the satelites.

this would be something like Sthep got his free trip in punta cana from lot of satellites,everything for free!so now you can win it from just 0.01 $,but that would be so hard and there are so many stages to go trough!but like is in this news,you can skip this smaller stages and to start from bigger!but from whatever you start,it will be hard!

No doubt it wont be easy at all winning a package from 1 cent only, but imagine if someone can get lucky and get it like that. But if the qualifiers start from 1 cent it means that they will gave more with higher buy ins of course,and will make it easier, with less steps to reach your goal Good luck to ll the ones, that are going to try for it.

It is a great performance to win a qualification at this live tournament, passing through all the games, which start at a cent buy-in. It is very good because many players can register with only few cents or few dollars and to fight for a place in a live tournament in America. If you are lucky there, then your life will change.

I personally very much like this situation when poker room gives chance to play satellite to very big tournaments for minimum buy in like in this situation for 1 cent. Of course nit big chance but it is chance, and also good this steps structure

if somebody is regular at 888poker then he can normaly play this kind of satellites with other poker games that he already play it!it would take lot of time,beacuse there are so many stages to come till last tournament,but you never know!would be great to have somebody from BRM forum at WSOP and to see what he can do!

considering the amount of time due to so many stages you have to go through, and the factor luck due to so many participants, its wiser to get a weekendjob, earn a few bucks and then try to play several $100 satellites. bigger chance and you waste less time if you work instead to play 1c satellites and spend your whole life infront of a laptop..

Indeed. The higher the buy in the more chances you will have to get the ticket. Plus less time spent as you are saying. But for some people one time buy in of 100USD is already too much, let alone keep rebuying till you you get lucky and progress further more

Let's not forget that there are very many people who plays poker in every day and they hoping to earn a decent salary in every month or more. There are people who can not find work in certain areas from their own countries. Then they, try to win money on the internet in different games or in other online opportunities. If they still have a life in front of their laptop it is better for them to try to play satellites.

It is a package covering one person for sure. It is not a family one It would be a pity winning a ticket and not go for that reason. Does your wife know, that you may miss a one time in your life chance of scoring big money out of nothing ? That is a good argument, dont you think?

in most times they give package for two persons and they cover almost everything for two persons!dont know how they give for this WSOP,beacuse it cost more then for other torunaments!maybe is for one person,but they can cover flight and hotel for second person,its not big amount!
