Spring's arrival means the busiest part of the poker schedule is almost upon us. Some of poker's biggest events will be contested over the next few months, and UltimateBet is giving our players even more chances to qualify for the game's most prestigious tournaments.
In addition to our usual slate of qualifiers, UB is adding the following satellites to our schedule. Add them to your calendar:
Starting tonight at 9:30pm ET, UltimateBet will host a $200+$15 satellite on Wednesday nights that will award seats in a Super Satellite at the Bellagio for the World Poker Tour World Championship. The package is worth $5,000--$2,600 goes toward your seat in the Super Satellite (don't forget, the buy-in for the WPT World Championship is $25,000) and $2,400 for travel and expenses. You'll only get three chances to win your seat through UB, as the Super Satellites will be held at the Bellagio on April 17th and 18th.
We've held satellites for the World Series of Poker Main Event on Friday nights since November, and with the WSOP less than two months away we're adding a satellite on Saturday night's as well. Same buy-in ($200+15), same starting time (9:30pm ET).
And we're also introducting a number of satellites for the 2007 UltimateBet Aruba Poker Classic. If you have your heart set on playing poker in paradise this year (and why wouldn't you) then UB is giving you three additional ways to win your seat. We're adding the following satellites to our schedule:
- $100 Rebuy satellites held every Thursday at 3pm ET.
- $100 Rebuy satellites held every Sunday at 2pm ET.
- $200+15 satellites held every Monday at 9:30pm ET
So if you're serious about playing in the biggest poker tournaments in the world, UltimateBet is serious about putting you in that seat. Like I said, add these new events to your calendar--how else will you be able to keep track?
