Online poker room Poker Stars has started WSOP Satellites, giving players the chance to win a seat in the 2009 World Series of Poker.
The 2009 WSOP is coming up at the end of next month, and poker players around the world are preparing to travel to Las Vegas to play, but not all of them are planning on paying for the trip. Online poker rooms like Poker Stars offer them the chance to play for prize packages that include airfare, accommodations and, most importantly, the buy in to major events that can run up to $10,000.
The events running at PokerStars, as illustrated by the picture to the right, can be reached by visiting the PokerStars lobby and selecting first Special, then WSOP, then cash satellites. Sit and go satellites and frequent player point satellites are also available.
