The World Poker Tour’s (WPT) exciting schedule continues with each venue bringing poker players life changing cash prizes. However, WPT is more than just poker, away from the tables the entertainment is legendary too. At Party Poker you can qualify for WPT via an online satellite and be in on the action for a fraction of the cost to buy in direct.
The satellites are running right now for the following WPTs.
WPT Vienna Warm Up
This is billed at the perfect place to warm up for live poker but, I think, with €200K on the table to be won this not just a rehearsal! There are no all inclusive prize packages but WPT Vienna Warm Up seat only prizes worth $475 (€340) to be won. The WPT Vienna Warm Up event will take place at the Montesino in Vienna, Austria October 16th to 20th.
Following on from the WPT Vienna Warm Up is the WPT Vienna National, running from 21st to 26th October where the Main Event buy in is €1,100, there are no Party Poker satellites to this event.
WPT Vienna Warm Up Satellites
The satellites are running now and can be found under the Live Events tab in the Party Poker lobby. The buy ins for the satellites are $1 or $2 leading to the daily, at 8.25pm UK time, WPT Vienna Warm Up Rebuy tournaments have a buy in $20, this where the seats are won.
Last chance 12th October.
