Stars has just launched them, copying full tilt where you get a pca or napt entry just for cashing in the main event, they are only giving away 1 million if you win the main event unlike the 10 million from full tilt.
PokerStars' 2010 World Series satellites are here and there is more reason than ever for you to win your package on the world's biggest online
poker site. Not only can you win your entire trip to the World Series Main Event (and the chance to win millions of dollars), but PokerStars is going to throw in a huge incentive just to make the money in the Main Event:
a main event prize package to the PCA or NAPT. Talk about value, huh?
If the satellites aren't up already, keep a very close eye on the EVENTS-> WSOP tab in the PokerStars tournament lobby. They
will be up today. You'll find a full range of cash satellites, FPP satellites and Steps, where you can ladder your way to glory.
Here's what you'll you'll be playing for:
2010 POKERSTARS WORLD SERIES PRIZE PACKAGE
$10,000 World Series buy-in
Eight nights of hotel accommodations (July 4-12) at Palms Hotel and Casino
$1,000 cash to go toward travel expenses
In all, that's a $12,000 package for the world's biggest
poker event.
As always, the people who choose to fly the PokerStars flag while they play are also going to party in style. If you're a qualifier and wear the PokerStars logo while you play, here's the cool stuff to which you'll be entitled:
A PokerStars player bag full of all kinds of neat gear
Two tickets to the PokerStars World Series party (last year Nelly brought down the house at Rain in what is still talked about as one of the hottest events in town)
50,000 VPPs (VIP Player Points)
Free suite upgrades for Supernova and Supernova Elites
If that doesn't sound like enough, PokerStars is throwing in some serious incentives to the people who go deep.
If you're qualifier with a PokerStars logo on your chest and make it into the money, PokerStars will give you a
free package to the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure or any other North American Poker Tour Main Event.
If you are a qualifier with a PokerStars logo on your chest and manage to win the Main Event, PokerStars will give you $1 million. Simple as that.
