WSOP 2004

Hello All,
I am heading out to Vegas April 19th for eight nights. The early events will be going on for the WSOP while I'm there. My question is how much is a Sat. for a 1500 event and 2000 event??? I am planning on playing a few of the second chance Tournies in the evening. Also how many people do they have in those 2nd chance tournies?

Thanks
Gene

A single table satellite typically costs a bit more than 1/10th of the price of the target tourney. So, if you're looking to win a seat in a $1500 event, the satellite will cost a bit more than $150. They often award $1500 in lammers, plus a little cash (so you will have some cash with which to tip the dealer). It will likely be about $165-170.

I have no idea how many people entered the second chance events last year, but it will be a LOT more this year, unless they limit it.

Hey Gene,

I, too, will be heading out to play in the early couple of events at WSOP. I'm going to buy-in to the $1500 limit and the $2000 NL tourneys, and play some sats. to the main event.

GL!!!

... to mention that the final day of the WPT Championship Event happens on April 23rd at the Bellagio.

Might be worth a look!
