Re: WSOP Day 1 Assignment
[ QUOTE ]
My guess on this is that you would not be allowed to play, as you would have to register the day before day 1 anyway. [/ QUOTE ] You can register up until 1 hour before the start of your day 1 heat.

Re: WSOP Day 1 Assignment
You have to consider the fatigue factor. Personally I would rather draw day 1a or 1b and have at least one day of rest before starting the potential marathon of days 2 to 7. The first days (1a,1b and 1c) are going to go at least 12 or 13 hours.
I believe most of the final table came from the first day of the split field last year.

I guess day 3 would be the least desirable. [/ QUOTE ] Sadly, that's the day I drew.

Re: WSOP Day 1 Assignment
Next year, they should charge a $200 premium, which would be added to the prize pool, for players who wish to select their starting date, up to a maximum of say 400 players for each of flights 1a, 1b, and 1c. Other entrants would be assigned at random to each flight.

I could be wrong, this is from memory, but I remember being surprised by it. I played on day 1b in the WPT event and it didn't seem to affect me on the subsequent days. (of course I busted out on day 1, so maybe that had something to do with it)

Re: WSOP Day 1 Assignment

Teedot, Thanks for the post. I actually qualified through Party Poker and rumor has it that they are buying us in in late June. It is good to hear though that I don't have to show up the first day to see if I'm playing or not. Thanks, Jeff [/ QUOTE ] I wonder when PokerStars is registering all of us...
