Pokerstars are giving us more chances to get to Las Vegas, the City that lives and breathes Poker, this year than any other site and are deservedly proud of their WSOP history. Since Chris Moneymaker won the championship in 2003, after qualifying through PokerStars, they have sent more players than any other site and this year they will continue the tradition. Being part of Team Pokerstars will be an unforgettable experience and who wouldn't love to hang out and play amongst their Poker Pros - and not only poker (I wonder would Boris Becker have time for a knock around in the car park?) ...

As promised in my previous Blog this is a further explanation of just one of the ways you can get to Las Vegas for WSOP 08 with Full Tilt - the Main Event Guarantee Tournaments.
There are four weekly cash qualifiers, on Wednesday mornings at 2.00am GMT (Tuesdays at 9.00pm ET) there are two seats guaranteed to be won and the buy in direct is $200 + $16 but if your bankroll won't take that then look out for satellites running for as little as $2 + $0.25 or 50 Full Tilt Points (FTPs). Not very European friendly times perhaps but, remember not everyone works 9 - 5.
