PokerStars World Series Satellites 2008

World Series of Poker 2008

It’s that time of year again. The time when everyone starts dreaming of winning the biggest poker tournament on the planet; the World Series of Poker* Main Event. There are many major events out there, but none of them come close to the importance of the WSOP*. From the instant fame attached to winning the Championship, to the multi-million dollar prize, this is where legends of poker are born. In 2008, PokerStars is giving you more chances than anywhere else to live the World Series dream. And this year we're guaranteeing at least 2,000 PokerStars players will be heading to Vegas.

Watch the video below to see why Team PokerStars Pro members think the World Series is the greatest poker event of them all!

The ultimate prize package

Since Chris Moneymaker won the Championship in 2003 after qualifying on PokerStars, we’ve had a proud history of sending more players to the Main Event than any other site. This year, we’re keeping this tradition alive by offering our best ever prize package, with a range of ways to qualify

The city that lives and breathes poker

The World Series is held at the Rio Hotel & Casino, at the heart of the glamour and excitement of the Las Vegas Strip. The true home of poker, Vegas is a place where you can find action any time of day, for any stake you care to play. It’s only right that the biggest event on the poker calendar should take place in this town. Our dream prize package gives you the chance to see Vegas in all its glory.

Your chance to play in the ‘Big Dance’

Imagine sitting at the green felt, surrounded by the world’s greatest players in the event that everyone wants to win. From the moment the tournament director utters those famous words of “shuffle up and deal”, every player in the room knows they’re taking part in something special. With PokerStars satellite qualifiers, you have the chance to experience the Main Event for yourself.
