Online Poker Players Choose Their Own WSOP Adventure
With 57 events in this year's WSOP, why are so many online poker players who win a seat being forced to play in the Main Event? DoylesRoom.com management asked themselves that very question. Not satisfied with the answer, they decided to award players at DoylesRoom.com with a virtual blank check instead of a Main Event seat. The only online poker site to bear the legendary Doyle Brunson name will award $12,500 and $2,500 prize packages that include a VIP Vegas experience and cash which players can use to buy into any WSOP event of their choice.
Stated Julius Maxwell, spokesperson for DoylesRoom.com "Our players have expressed interest in playing not just in the Main Event, but also in some of the smaller events. By giving away cash and letting the players choose the events they want to play in, we're giving people the freedom to experience and enjoy the world's biggest poker tournament on their own terms. Our players know that there is more than one path you can choose to become a legend."
Maxwell says that with a Main Event field numbering in the upper thousands year after year, a lot of online poker players look to the smaller events for a better shot at winning a bracelet. Even if someone at DoylesRoom wins a $12,500 prize package, they can use the money to buy into a number of smaller events. Or, if they like, they can push it all into the Main Event. It's completely their call.
DoylesRoom.com will hold a weekly Super Satellite at 9pm ET every Sunday. The $350+24 tournament will award the winner(s) with $12,500 in cash. Qualifiers are available from as low as $3+0.30. Players can also purchase Step tickets starting at just $1.10+0.10 for the chance to win $2,500 in cash. There are five Steps to the WSOP Step series.
Regardless of whether a player wins $12,500 or $2,500 for the World Series of Poker, they'll automatically win a legendary VIP experience with the DoylesRoom team that includes a private dinner with Doyle Brunson, an invite to DoylesRoom.com's all-inclusive party, a photo session with Doyle Brunson, a Meet & Greet with the Legend, autographed copies of his books, and DoylesRoom.com apparel & gear.
