A few questions oscar, if you were to win the package could you take cash instead of flights and accomadation? Also is the tournament in London a main event sat or what is it? Also with regards to the 1000 wsop chips can you cash these for cash.

Will you be holding any M.E. sats?

Doc Farrell

sounds like fun, can't wait to play.

i think the winner gets a Vegas seat in a one table sat for the main event, is that right? i want it.

bohsman

The €1k tournament chips can be used in any wsop tournament or can usually be sold for close to 100% of face value.

Ill find out about flights and accom.

bohsman

Flights and accom, you cant take cash but could sell the package

Oscar,

Whats the value of the packages in euro?

stevire

Can the prizepool generate more than 1 package or will the rest of the places be paid in cash? (in the grand final)

i.e is there a package for every x amount of money?

smurph

Im confused here....
do you win a package to the main event,ie worth approximately $13,000 dollars

or a package of your flights and hotel & $1,000 chip to use in any tournament?

i can't get into the link about it on the Gutshot... work restrictions etc.,

Package for flights accom and $1k chip. Its a ticket for every x amount in the prizepool. I think x = €2800, will check later.

Goodluck2me

Its basically a sateliite to get you to Vegas with a chance of Main Event entry. It makes it more affordable to the average player, seems a good idea.

stevire

I'll more than likely donate looks like a great idea... Nice prize too.

is this replacing the monday night30e f.o or is that not on anymore?

RasTa

I don't get this. Surely you could get flights, accom and $1,000 for about €1,800 if you shopped around?*

*Unless Oscar meant €1,800 and not €2,800
