I would think you would be better off just playing a couple of $200 on your own dime.

That's effectively what you would be playing but in a theoretically  tougher player pool.

Should be some decent size 200's out there I assume.

Like pokerfan said, you're probably best just going out there and playing whatever comps you're comfortable with.

Should you happen to get a result while you're there go and play the $500 at Bellagio, or a $300 at Venetian.

www.allvegaspoker.com has everything you'll need and you'll be good to go!


That's all the tournaments at the better card rooms on the strip as they are now, but they may change slightly between now and then.

Unless you've got some sort of record of proven success in tournaments, you're going to have difficulty selling to strangers.

Maybe try to sell to people you regularly play with.. that's how I first got staked into bigger tournaments.

Good luck.

If you really want to play a WSOP tournament (and who doesn't?) why not give some sattys a shot.

The smaller ones ($125 and $225 especially) are very very soft and with a bit of run good you'll win one.

No mate, unfortunately not Sad

As Camel suggested, give the sats for the WSOP a spin if you fancy a shot at a bracelet event and with a bit of luck you'll bink a seat.

Maybe try and spin $200 up at cash Omaha or something. Loads of loose play and massive pots at the Venetian that time of year at $2 ($5) / $5. The Sats at The Rio are terrible value IMO. Hardly any chips and very fast clocks.

You might be able to get family and friends to buy small chunks of you.  A tenner here, £20 there - and it soon adds up.  Then use facebook or wherever to keep them updated as to your progress.  They'll probably love it for the sweat, even if they don't really understand poker or what it's all about.
