WPT Satelittes at Bristol St.
Hi all,
All of the above options refer to the post that Wes started. I'm reprinting the Step format below for reference.
Each Step has it's own benefit/drawbacks, (amount of play v. amount of people we send) so I'm interested in hearing your thoughts. In addition, I'd like to hear what people think about everyone competing in a Bristol Street Super Sat., but not moving on to Fallsview, getting a piece of the winner. (ie. 0.5% - 1% range)
Let me know what your thoughts are! I'd like to run one or two super's over the next couple months.
$90 ($73 + $17) Single table. Winner receives a Step 2 $640 satellite voucher entry, second receives a replay satellite voucher entry at $90 level.
$800 in starting tournament chips, 10 minute blind levels.
Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays.
Step 2
$640 ($607 + $33) Two table. Winner receives a Main Event entry, second receives a $1,200 satellite voucher entry, and third receives a replay satellite voucher at $640 level.

My interpretation of a vote for "$640 Step 2" would be that the first prize will be $10,300, which means that 32 players will have to buy-in for over $320 each (10,300 / 32). Is a $320+ buy-in what the Step 2 voters want, or did I misinterpret the options?
I really doubt that most bristol street goers will buy in for a $640 for a chance to win 10K.
I'll make the drive from Oakville for $50 or $100. I think a $50 rebuy would be cool - but only up until level 3 or 4. Some extra cheese on the pizza...
Definitely keep me in the loop for whatever you are running. I am probably going to play 2 satellites a month to qualify for the WPT.
Thanks
LOL!! Come on, Jeff. The $10,000 buy-in Bristol Street event is *NEXT* year.

Any help would be appreciated.

Which casino/poker room is nearby?

There will be a lot of people that are going to end up spending $640 or more in attempting to go to the $10,300 WPT North American Poker Championship. They will play the $90 and/or $160 satellites at Fallsview Casino and if they have not won a Main Event seat by mid-October, they will take one final shot for $640 or $1,200. It seems to make a lot more sense to use that money to play in more rake-free satellites plus a super satellite where you get a stake with the winner.
