How to Qualify for the World
Series of Poker

This page details our overview of online
poker's offerings for 2007 WSOP satellites. Essentially, a
satellite tournament features a smaller buy-in with the top prizes
being free seats into a larger buy-in tournament. Typically, WSOP
satellite events are multi-table affairs with buy-ins ranging
between $100-500. For every $10,000 or $12,000 in the prize pool, a
seat will be guaranteed. For those who don't want to pay the full
satellite entry, there are even sub-satellite tournaments for even
cheaper.
With as much as half of the Main Event's
field being fed by online poker rooms in recent years, there is no
shortage of satellites that can minimize the investment necessary to
get into The Big One. Below you'll find profiles of the top
satellite programs from various poker rooms.

Bodog may not be best known for
their tournaments, but they run one
of the simplest and cheapest WSOP
satellite programs online. Also
interesting is the fact that these
satellites are actually WSOP/WPT
events with a $12,000 prize.
Bodog will allow you to choose
any land-based event to use the
money on. Besides the direct $250
qualifiers that usually attract 45
players or so (a not-so-unrealistic
field to beat), there are
sub-satellites or "Cheap Seats" with
buy-ins from $1.50, $7, and $27 to
win your way into the qualifier.
There are a number of these running
throughout the day and it is one of
the simplest ways to win a $12,000
2007 WSOP prize package. You can
click here to visit Bodog Poker
and also receive a 10% instant cash
bonus available to our players.

Poker Stars runs the largest
WSOP satellite program online. Known
for sending thousands of players to
the Main Event each year, the
biggest online poker room has 4 or
more satellites running every hour.
They also feature Sit and Gos, which
fill up around the clock. The main
goal is to get into the weekly $650
direct qualifier that runs every
Sunday. Once there, every $11,000 in
the prize pool guarantees another
WSOP seat. This year's satellite
model at
Poker Stars is attractive
because of the high number of seats
the direct qualifiers will
guarantee. Besides that, if you make
the final table at the WSOP,
Poker Stars will add up to an
extra $1 million to your prize. The
smaller sub-satellites running
throughout the day range in buy-in
from FPP to $4 and up to $80. The
bigger buy-in tourneys are usually
10-seat SnGs and the cheap ones are
frequently double shootouts. There
are also inexpensive rebuy events
for less risk to your bankroll. You
can
click here to visit Poker Stars,
which entitles you to a 100% bonus.

The incredible boost in traffic at
Full Tilt Poker means an
improved WSOP satellite system for
2007. Even better than the
satellites offered to everyone,
players who sign up through our site
are eligible for 8 free
WSOP freerolls. Another positive
of qualifying through here is the
extra $10 million they'll give you
if you actually win the Main Event.
While it's a long shot, it's an
extra perk for the ultimate poker
dream. In terms of the actual
satellites, the direct qualifiers
are the Thursday $1,000 tourneys and
the huge 100 seat guaranteed event.
Both are good values as quite a
number of seats will be up for
grabs. Also,
Full Tilt Poker hosts tons of
daily Sit and Gos as well as
multi-table tournaments from less
than $10 to about $100. Another
interesting promotion is the
"Bracelet Chase" event, which gives
seats into the $1,500 WSOP events.
You can
click here to visit Full Tilt Poker,
qualify for our 8 private WSOP
freerolls, and get a 100% bonus.

UltimateBet, who has always been
known for their quality tournament
schedule, hosts a simple and
effective WSOP satellite program.
Every Friday at 9:30 PM EST,
UltimateBet hosts a $200 direct
entry satellite into the WSOP. For
every $12,000 in the prize pool,
another Main Event prize package is
guaranteed. This is less expensive
than many other sites' direct
qualifiers and, at 1 in 60 winning a
prize, the win is attainable. Every
Thursday and Friday you can also
find an onslaught of cheap
satellites into the $200 tournament.
They range in buy-in from $10 to $40
turbo events. Overall, this is an
easy system to understand with and
UltimateBet has some of the best
tournament structures online.

to receive an exclusive 100% bonus.


Pacific Poker has always had
some of the worst competition
online, which spills over into the
satellite tournaments. The range is
great in terms of buy-ins for the
first round of qualifiers, which
begin at $2 and work their way up to
$27. By playing the $2 tournament
you can win your way into the $27
event, which is a good value as 1 in
5 players will qualify for the
direct entry satellite. The $125
tournament gives direct seats into
the Main Event and is one of the
least expensive WSOP satellite
options online. You can
click here to visit Pacific Poker
to also receive a 25% instant cash
bonus by coming through our site.

Titan Poker has become one of
the major players for the
international market and hosts a
quality satellite system. Before you
invest any money in satellites, new
players can also participate in our
private $12,000
WSOP freerolls. Other satellites
include ongoing Sit and Gos with
buy-ins from $1.50 to $75. There are
also numerous multi-table
tournaments to win your seat into
the direct $350 entry event where
Main Event seats will be awarded to
the top finishers. You
can
click here to visit Titan Poker
and play in our private freerolls
and receive a 100% bonus.

Party Poker has partnered with
our site to bring several $12,000
WSOP freerolls to our players.
If you sign up through our site,
these are completely free to enter
but have free Main Event seats for
the top finishers. For cash buy-in
tournaments,
Party Poker has tons of rebuy
multi-table tournaments and Sit and
Go qualifiers to earn your way into
the main $220 buy-in direct entry
event. The $220 tournament takes
place every day and the
sub-satellites are affordable with a
range of $3 to $24. This is still
one of the largest poker rooms in
the world so the WSOP satellites are
very frequent and structured well. You
can
click here to visit Party Poker
and play in our private freerolls
and also receive up to $100 free
through our site.

Sun Poker shouldn't be
overlooked as they have one of the
best 2007 WSOP satellite promotions
online. Their "One Sick Promo" offer
will actually provide 100 seats
completely free of charge. All our
Sun Poker players need to do is
earn MPPs. At the end of the
promotion, the top 100 MPP earners
will get a completely free WSOP
tournament entry and potentially
more. This is an easy way to get
into the WSOP without having to win
a satellite tournament at all. For
cash buy-ins, their direct entry
tournament costs $500 to enter and
will give one Main Event prize
package for every $12,000 in the
pool. They also run a large number
of SnGs, double shootouts, and
multi-table tournaments to win a
seat in the $500 event. You
can
