Um, am I the only one who doesn't want to be caught trying to enter or leave the US with a false passport, birth certificate (whatever) hidden in my bags?

Next stop, WPT-Guantanamo!

Possibility of sitting down and playing 50%
Chance of collecting a prize if you cash 0%

Sell it if you can.

Sell 100% of your action if you can find buyers, and be sure to bust out on the first day..

Or better yet, sell 150% of your action!

Hypothetically, say you stupidly played a $650 sat and won a WPT-Carribean seat but were too young? Would you get fake ID? How good does this fake ID have to be?

I won a seat and cashed in the aussie millions from pp, so I may be able to offer some help.

For one, no one from pp actually ever checked my id. They had a meet and greet but other than that I could have been anyone for all they know.

I think, but am not positive that the pokerroom checked my id when they started the tournament. It was not a memorable experience if they did, but quite possibly they may have just asked my name and showed me to my seat.

Finally, I know they did not check my id when I cashed. After I busted, I was just ushered to the cashier's stand where I was paid, no questions asked.

Now this was australia, where no taxes were taken or tax material given. If you have ever cashed in a tournament at a casino, you know that they require you to fill out tax paperwork and the staff checks your id to make sure you are not lying.

Personally, I would give it a shot. By no means would I make/use a fake passport or anything like that. But if you can get a fake drivers license with the intent of only showing it to the pokerroom people, I am sure you would be fine, as long as you don't look 12. In reality, no one is going to send you to jail for using a fake id in a poker tournmanent. So really as long as you aren't stupid the worst that happens is you go to a beautiful resort, and don't get to play any poker. You'll have a good time regardless.

i think any winnings are credited to your pokerstars account and no taxes are withheld

unless you plan on winning the tournament a "novelty" drivers license showing you to be 18+ should suffice

I'd advise your friend to sell the entry.
