Satellites for the 2020 WSOP Online Main Event are running around the clock.

The $25,000,000 guaranteed Main Event of the 2020 WSOP on GGPoker promises to be the richest in online poker history with the winner walking away with a minimum payday of $3.5 million.

In order to get a piece of that record-breaking prize pool, players need to first qualify for Day 2 by surviving one of the $5,000 buy-in starting flights. And with Day 2 taking place on Sunday, August 30 there are only a handful of opening flights left.

But for many, putting up $5,000 to play in the Main Event is a stretch. For many, actually, it’s not even an option. But that doesn’t mean that taking a shot at World Series of Poker glory is totally out of reach as GGPoker has an extraordinary amount of ways to win your way into a starting flight before Day 2 kicks off.

Mega Satellites

One of the quickest ways to win your way into a starting flight is through one of the direct Mega Satellites. With over 100 direct qualifiers remaining on the schedule, the Mega Satellites are taking place around the clock. So whenever you are ready to take your shot, there’s very likely a Mega Satellite getting ready to kick off.

The $500 direct Mega Satellites to the Main Event offer players their best shot at getting in. There are over 40 $500 qualifiers still on the schedule with a total guarantee of more than 250 seats. Three of these qualifiers offer 10-seat guarantees, one running each day between August 27-29.

However, if you only have one attempt at this buy-in level, check out one of the two 30-seat guarantees. The first fires on Friday, August 28 at 2:00 PM GMT and the follow-up take place at the same time the very next day, Saturday, August 29. While these 30-seat guaranteed Megas are sure to have the most runners out of any of the satellites, it also offers one of the biggest opportunities to win your way in.

If $500 is still a little on the high side, players can also get in directly for the price of playing in a Sunday Major. There are also 40 $250 direct Mega Satellites to the Main Event still left to be played with over 100 seats to be won. The majority of these events promise between 2-3 seats each time and with so many left, like the $500’s, they are running at almost every point over the next four days.

Low Buy-In, Big Value

The direct satellites don’t stop there. GGPoker is offering guaranteed Megas at both the $100 and $50 price points as well. While many of the direct $100 Mega Satellites come with only a single seat guaranteed there are four that have huge value, promising five seats each, with the final one taking place on August 28 at 3:05 GMT.

There are only four $50 direct Mega Satellites left on the schedule, they all provide huge value with no fewer than three seats guaranteed. The top one to target is the 4-seat guarantee taking place on August 28 at 5:05 GMT.

Win Your Way In For $1

If those price points still don’t apply, all hope of playing in the Main Event is not lost. There’s still time to win your way up through GGPoker’s Main Event feeder satellites which start at $1 and can win you tickets to larger satellites that provide tickets to all of the aforementioned direct satellites.

Furthermore, if you don’t have that kind of time, players have the option of jumping into “Flip Party’ satellites where players buy-in and go all-in every hand until there is a winner, with prizes being entry to larger satellites. There are still hundreds of opportunities to play in the feeder and ‘Flip Party’ satellites before Day 2 gets underway.

In total, between the Mega Satellites, the feeder steps, and the Flip Parties there are literally hundreds of ways still left to qualify or advance to the WSOP Main Event. But players will need to act fast as Day 2 of the WSOP Main Event takes place on Sunday, August 30 and there are only a few starting flights left on the schedule.
