WPT Fallsview RAKE FREE Satellite Thread!!!
Graham feel free to move this if I posted it in the wrong section.
With satellites at Fallsview having started up again we can now start playing some Rake Free member satellites. If you are interested in playing in one please post so in this thread.
The Game has indicated he would be willing to host one and mentioned wanting to give 3 Prizes
1. $1240 Satellite Seat
2. $460 Satellite Seat
3. Cash Prize
With a 10 man Sit and Go this can be done with a $200 buy-in which would give 3rd $300 or we could have a $130 buy-in with 1 optional rebuy or addon of $50-60 which would guarantee a $1240 seat with additional funds going toward a $460 seat/Cash Prize.
Blinds and Structure created by Blondefish to insure a format suitable for all players.
Thoughts? Interest?

There has been talk of this before and I kind of agree with Westside it that should you win the rake free satellite then win your Fallsview satellite you should earn the right to 100% of any WPT winnings that follow.
I'd prefer the $200 fo over the $130 + 1rebuy/ao
- Same blind structure as the $1,240 WPT satellite, i.e., 3,000 starting chips, 30-minute blinds. With 10 players, it will last 4-5 hours.
- TDA rules will apply. Unlike Fallsview, the #1 rule is to consider the best interest of the game and fairness as the top priority in the decision-making process. Every effort will be made to award the pot to the winning hand, instead of ruling it dead.
- A brand new deck will be used, e.g, Copag limited edition commemorative Centennial or Dual Index deck. Pre-shuffling a second deck can be implemented to increase the number of hands per level.
Here are a list of possible locations and times for the rake-free satellite:
- Woodbridge on a Saturday night.
- East Mississauga on a Wednesday night or Sunday afternoon.
- Southwest Mississauga on The_Game's day off.
- Georgetown on a Sunday ~5 PM.
To those who have signed up, post or PM me which day you would be unavailable. If we have enough players, the satellite can be held as early as this weekend.
- East Mississauga on a Wednesday night or Sunday afternoon (Sunday ok, Weds no).
- Southwest Mississauga on The_Game's day off.(what day is this?)
- Georgetown on a Sunday ~5 PM. (no)
btw, I may be able to get a location near Pine Valley and Steeles for Sat evening if interested.
hopefully we can run more than 1 of these?
I can also host one of these games at my place (east end of downtown toronto)
Me too
And +1 on not playing at a location where there are raked games going on at the same time.
With my schedule, between softball league, tournaments, travelling, I would say you guys pick a date that works for most/all, and I'll try to work it into mine.
I dont mind driving 45 to 1 hour to play this game.
we dont have to share our winning money
im good for any day as long as i know at least couple of days ahead
the_game day off means anyday as long as we get enough player to play at the_game place south mississauga
skill 0 or skill 6 lets just play, and have a chance to play wpt. even i dont win a seat i wont feel bad cuzz i tried unlike past years where we just talk about playing a satellite but never play. lol.
soooo yea organize a game and im in.
why am I getting that feeling as well. I will throw out a couple dates: Sat. Aug. 2nd (long weekend) or Sat. Aug 9th at the game's place in Mississauga around 7pm.

This might be a dumb question but what do the blinds start at? How exactly do they escalate?
sounds good
not available aug 2.
To Voodoo and anybody else that can make it for August 2, please PM me your email address as I'll be sending an email before Saturday. By the way, I'll probably carpool to Fallsview on Saturday and check out the $1,240 and $460 high-raked satellites.
