SUNDAY JANUARY 27, 2013 at 12:00pm

Re Entry if you bust in the first 4 levels of play you will receive a full starting stack of chips. So bring an extra buy in just in case you take one of those KK vs AA beats early.

This Satellite is for the $2,500 Poker Players Championship ($200,000 Guarantee) in ARUBA at The Westin Hotel and Casino that takes place on Sunday May 5, 2013 to Thursday May 9, 2013 (Day 1a May 5th, Day 1b May 6th)

To fly to Aruba from Toronto you can either book with Air Canada or WestJet which has direct flights for $700 to $800 approximately or you can fly out of Buffalo for $500 approximately with 1 stop.

SATELLITE START TIME 12:00pm

MINIMUM of 17 players needed.

Here is your chance to go to The Deepstacks Poker Tours Player Poker Championship in ARUBA for $280 US Dollars

Rules for this tournament; The usual rules that we have been following for all Orangeville Poker Tour Events in addition to the following;

1. Tournament is in US Dollars since you are winning your buyin into a US Tournament.

2. The goal is to get 17 players to be able to give away the $4,675 package mentioned above.

3. This is an equity tournament. Any winnings (only that after 30% tax is taken. $5000 and up gets taxed) from the National Championship Tournament will be divided amongst the players that were in that particular satellite tournament. 85% to the winning player in the National Championship, the remaining 15% divided evenly amongst the players from that tourney. I am not sure if Aruba takes any taxes, if not then 15% of the payout will be divided equally.

4. All players will sign a contract at the beginning of the satellite tourney in attendance agreeing to these terms.

5. If you cannot play the Event, then the seat will go to the player that finished behind the satellite winner, if this is not possible then all monies won will be returned back to OPT minus the initial buy in, and put towards another satellite.
