Heading to Las Vegas for the 2103 WSOP which starts this week? Wishing you were playing in a couple of tournaments but need to manage your bank roll? One way to manage your bankroll is to satellite into a tournament. During the 2013 WSOP, there will be multiple satellite tournaments each day. The winnings are tournament chips that will be good for entry into any of the 62 WSOP tournaments.
When: May 29, 2013 through July 8, 2013
Where: Same location as the 2013 WSOP, the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas. All satellite tournaments will take place inside the Pavilion Ballroom in the Convention Center area.
What: Satellite Tournaments: Single-table satellites, Mega satellites and Turbo-Mega satellites
How much? Entrance fees start at $75. See schedule below.
Registration for all satellites will be at the cage located in the Pavilion.
Most affordable satellites>> The Mega satellites. More poker players participate, and there are more opportunities to win seats to the tournaments.
Single-table satellites>> The winner of the table wins the seat.
Turbo satellites>> Multi-table poker tournaments that play faster because the blind levels are much shorter.
Short on time? Choose a single-table satellite or turbo satellite.
