  • I think it was 10,000 last year
  • It's always been that much. You buy in for $10,000 and get $10,000 of tournament chips.
  • here is the exact starting chip count if you care

    8-$25
    8-$100
    4-$500
    7-$1000

    totaling $10,000
  • All WSOP tournament chips = buy-in.
  • Hmmm, doesn't leave much to play with on the 1K or 1.5K buyin.
    Are the levels 1 hour or 30 minutes?
    Star @ 25/25 or 25/50?
  • 1 hour levels, start 25/25. I forget exactly where it goes from there, but I remember feeling last year that the blinds weren't that oppressive. Maybe that's because I busted out before I had to worry about it.
  • Did some more digging and found this:
    Last year for the $1500 event(and I think most if not all events) the blinds went like this:
    L1 25 25
    L2 25 50
    L3 50 100
    L4 100 200
    L5 100 200 25 ante
    L6 150 300 50 ante
    From the pokerpages.com forum. They failed to mention that levels are 1 hour each, but I can remember that much.
  • oh thats not so bad then. They just skip the 75/150 but make up for it with the 25/25 and the 150/300 rarely seen online now. Thanks!
