Anyone have any info on the WSOP Satellites at Harrahs? I see they have them 3 days a week @ $30+10 to get into the Super Satellite, but other info as far as how they do the registration, number of people, quality of play etc...

Hello,

I played in a couple a few months ago.

Registration is in person, and I believe it starts two hours prior. As I recall, lines started forming about forty-five minutes before that. Get there EARLY if you want to play, as they only run ONE ten handed satellite at a time. If you call Harrah's, they'll tell you start times.

For 30 +10, you get 1000 in tournament chips. Blinds start at 25/50, and double every 15 minutes. Crapshoot, anyone? So, with regard to your question about quality of play, I would say--- not much...

Hope this helps...

Matt

Thanks for the info! I assume they do the wristband number drawing thing?
Definitely seems like a recipe for a crapshoot. On the bright side, that may lead to some week players in the Super Satellites.

How long are these running? If anyone has any feedback let me know.

The last super satellite is in May. Not sure of the exact date.
