The WCOOP 2021 Main Events are now running! The $5k event is one of the most exciting on the poker calendar. It’s not often you’ll see $10 million in guaranteed prizes, and player pools are relatively small at just a couple of thousand entries.

Second place is set to earn a payday of over $1 million, and first place is looking at over $1.5 million.

It’s not too late to get involved – The Main Event is currently on break with late registration open until play resumes. That gives you several hours to get your snacks and prepare for the biggest poker tournament of your life!

You can buy in directly to the $5,200 Main Event, but for a lot of players that’s way above the constraints of their bankroll.

That’s why we’ve been running satellites to help lower stakes players make entry a reality. Even a min-cash in the $5k Main Event is worth over $13k, so anyone who makes the money via satellite will be in for a treat.

Satellites for Main Events are still running from now up until the start of Day 2. Here’s a full list of last minute satellites to the WCOOP 91-H: $5k NLHE Main Event:

There’s also time to Fast Track your way into the $5k Main Event. With Fast Track, you can buy in at any round and work your way up to gain entry. Round 1 starts at $1, Round 2 at $11, then it’s on to Round 3 for $109 and Round 4 for $1,050. Win Round 4 and you’ll have your seat in the Main Event.

Click “WCOOP 2021” then the “Main Event Sats” tab on the PokerStars lobby to find all satellites, or click “Fast Track” to see fast track satellites.

Spin N Gos are also an option. WCOOP 2021 editions are running for $0.50, $4 and $22. Each pays out WCOOP tickets up to a $5,200 Main Event entry. It’s a more “random” route to take, and you could end up winning entries to other WCOOP events too. But this is another low cost alternative to buying in direct.

You’ve got a few hours left to find your way in to one of the biggest online poker events of the year. $10M gtd, $1.5M for first, and entry for as little as $2. There’s no time to waste!
