Simon Trumper says

"OMG, only 31 players so far for the £150,000 WSOP Warm up on Day 1a, maybe no one is rushing to get here because they know it is a 1 hour clock with the WSOP $10,000 Main Event structure and you can buy in up to end of level 10, so 1.40am.

Ideally would like to to get 100 players today.

We also have a 10 x £500 seat guaranteed Mega Sat both online €100 at 8.30pm and live in club £100 at 9pm toni...ght, there are 2 more £100 Mega Sats with 10 x £500 seats into the WSOP Mega Sats on Sunday and Monday where you can win 5 x £9000 Vegas packages each day.

ACES"
