are any sites running satellites to the 1k 1-day NLHE WSOP events that run at the same time as the main event?

maybe this is too early to know.

Last year, Dynamitepoker (now checknraisepoker) offered a whopping ONE satellite to the $2500 NLHE event.

To my knowledge (which I am ~75% sure is complete), no one offered satellites for any events smaller than this.

I would be surprised if we see any this year. Even the smallest sites seem to be pimping $10,000 entries these days.

You could always roll-your-own through the steps. (Assuming you can find a buyer for your Step 5 seat).

funny, now that you mention it, i have a step 5 seat. no clever/safe way of selling these has popped up lately, has it?

Boy, a $1000 NLHE side-event sounds about a billion times more fun than a Step 5. And more profitable too, I'd guess.

Sorry, can't be of much help with the selling. Have someone who really trusts you, and who you really trust, play it on your account?

I would ask some of the regulars on the Step 5 circuit if they want to buy it - they're playing them anyway and mostly buying in directly (I think).
