Satellites Start at $5 at WPT Global for the WPT500 in Mexico City
There’s still time to get involved in WPT Global’s latest promotion that is, in fact, a first for this bigtime player on the online poker scene. Leading online poker rooms have usually been long established as veteran operators but, in the case of WPT Global, despite having been around since only last year, it was able to launch at the top of the real money online poker pile. This is because it is backed up with a ready-made pedigree of many years of poker history, being the online platform of the famous World Poker Tour (WPT).
And why is their current promotion so special? The answer is that it brings the adrenaline of the WPT to poker fans by featuring online poker tournaments and live poker tournaments as a single event, the point being that players begin at home (or wherever online...) in the first of these formats, and finish playing in the live WPT500 in Mexico City, with a guaranteed $500,000 up for grabs ... To add even more spice, they’re adding a live WPT Mystery Bounty, too. As can be seen from the latest schedule of qualifiers, below, there are numerous affordable routes to the bustling Mexico City stage.
