Now, back to WPT Venice. PartyPoker will be running its final satellite to the Italian poker tournament this Sunday, January 22nd at 15:20 ET. The direct qualifier has a $530 buy-in and guarantees one $10,000 package. There’s a $58 satellite to the direct qualifier that runs daily at 13:45 ET and takes on a Turbo format. It’s an excellent option if a three-figure buy-in is out of your budget.If you’re looking to get into WPT Venice without dropping a lot of cash, then check out daily freerolls that send players to the WPT Venice Sub Qualifier Speed Rebuy, a $2 tournament. The latter qualifies players into the aforementioned $58 satellite and runs every single day of the week. You can also qualify for the $58 satellite in daily $6.50 tournaments. Click over to PartyPoker to view the full qualifying structure.
PartyPoker’s parent company, Party Gaming, owns and operates the World Poker Tour, so the site offers plenty of chances to qualify for WPT events. The Venice stop comes your way from February 6th to 10th at the Casino di Venezia Ca Vendramin Calergi, which is located on the Grand Canal and is an impressive building. This author recalls dropping some coin in roulette there, but I digress.
WPT Venice will be televised, so if you’re lucky enough to make it in, you might even score a little face time on the silver screen.
