Jack looks amazing, kudos to him!

Does anyone know when TBIC opens to load funds on to?

What status level do you need to boost on the WSOP waiting lists??

I got Champions Club on WSOP but only Diamond card - figured that would be enough rake

If you don't mind waiting in the old process then you'll be fine - depositing money into your account to use later for registering can be GTO because of how easy it all is and the different options you have now for funding. You should be able to fund your WSOP account at the cage, ach, wire, crypto to be used for any time in the future this series.

I have no desire to wait in 2-3 hour WSOP lines so this is the only way I would do it if I wanted to play in certain events.

I’m Diamond status and don’t wait for cash games, if that’s what you’re asking.

They should be able to like 98% but can't confirm officially.

Former Main Event champions getting free entry seems like a recipe for (soft) collusion where they just play worse than they would otherwise against certain opponents knowing that their opponent is freerolling for a massive bounty.

Also, how may former Main Event Champions do you think will enter the field?

If they get free entry will it be over 15 Former ME champs in field/

So is the answer yes? Former ME Champs get free entry into Event #1

7 STARS have a special line in the VIP cage area as I recall. But even as just a Diamond I never waited more 15 minutes max and that was 1 time. Typical wait to buy an entry using my TBIC funds at the window was no more than 5 minutes.

Has anyone actually confirmed that you can buy in with a credit card with no fee?

Don't arrive for 2 1/2 more weeks but the excitement is high. Good luck to yall.

Unless I run into you at a table.

Btw do main event satties run WSOP wide? If so, would I be able to sell my seat pretty easily if I snagged one? Thanks

Nick, I have no idea. But this seems unlikely. WSOP would get eaten alive by fees

Are you telling me someone like Jamie Gold wouldnt be perfectly willing to do something like that for an easy buck? Not my fault people are willing to cheat to get money if there is a way. Im not complaining just stating a fact.

There's the big guy that's trying to look like a biker with his black vest, wearing sunglasses and all black with half his belly hanging out the bottom of his shirt. He's the quintessential poster child of mid '00s poker for sure.

First place will be $1 million in the mystery bounty. The other places will be based on the new payouts. But in a bounty event, the min-cash will not be 2x because $300 of $1000 entry goes towards the bounty. So min-cash will be around $1318 instead of $2,000. You can see payouts here... https://www.wsop.com/2024/payoutcalculator/
