WSOP Satellites?

Anyone have any opinions on which site runs the best WSOP satellites? It looks like Stars runs the most, but are there any others where you've found the odds to be any better (meaning players:WSOP seat ratio lower)?

any others where you've found the odds to be any better (meaning players:WSOP seat ratio lower)?

i was going to play a stars dbl shootout yesterday and decided that i would rather play something with a bigger buy-in to lower the ratio. so, i had decided to play the $615 on sunday.

then i realized that stars shirts cap at 3xl, so i figured i would check paradise because they have the plus sizes that granny needs and if i am going to wear the same blouse for 5 days, i wanted to be comfy.

anyhoo, i wrote paradise and found out that they are having 1K events.

specifically:

<font color="green"> With regards to satellites, we're actually going to be offering a $1,000 buy-in satellite with sats ranging from $5 to $60 feeding this tournament. Given what's out there I think this bigger buy-in sat will appeal to more players given the 1 in 14 odds.

At this time it looks like our WSOP promo launch will begin on April 4th.

therefore, i think stars and paradise are the ones you would want to choose from if you want bigger buy-ins. others should feel free to add any sites with equal or greater buyins, as i think this would be valuable info to many of us.

Awesome, thanks for the info. I had no idea Paradise would be running 1k satellites.
The Stars $615 satellites give out 1 seat for every $11,000 in the pot, so that's about 1 seat for every 18 players. The Paradise satellites are a little better at 14 players per 1 seat.

Thanks again.

I played at the empire one $5/$1 for 1 in 22 at getting $100/$10 seat for 1 in 110 chance at getting WSOP seat.

I played in the $5/$1 5 times and got the $100/$10 seat twice.

Best out of the $100/$10 one was like 37 out of 170. It is hard to make $5/$1 into $12K WSOP package. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

$50+5 into $1K into the package would be easier.
Still not super likely consider $50 is liking to have some decent people in it.
