Planning to play in 2005 WSOP????

[BlibbityBlabbity]

Are you planning to play ing the 2005 WSOP??

If so, what events, dates, etc.?

I probably will not this year, but I am interested to see what events will be held in Atlantic City (as seen on another thread) this year leading up to it.

I have to qualify first, but all of my attention will be focused on qualifying for it..... They are expecting 5000+ and I would really like to be one of them.

[Tuff Luck]

Nope.

Id love to, but unless someone is nuts enough to stake me....errr no.

Yes, in the remote possibility that I win a qualifier ... but I'm sure everyone thinks as I do.

I'll be playing. I'll only do the main event if I win a satellite or if I find a backer, but I will do some of the smaller tourneys.... maybe some of their earlier NL events, but if I don't do the main event, I'll definitely play in the two $1k evens they have going on lte in the week (as I did this year).

WPT is 21 too because u have to be 21 to play/qualify for WPT event on pokerstars

[Jackass_man]

Oh so pokerstars runs the WPT and you have to play pokerstars to play events. Thats news to me!

I definitely plan on playing in a couple of the minor (buy in $1000-$2000) WSOP events a couple of years down the road.. how do you go about registering, and can anyone just plop down a couple G's to enter the tourney or do you have to have some sort of qualification?

[Talking Poker]

Show up with money, stand in line, and you're in.

[Charlie Frank]

And that's exactly how it should be.

I don't like the idea of having a "pros only" championship. The allure of these big money events is the idea that any Joe Blow can show up and take the title.
