    Besides paying 10 g. what are some good ways to get into the world series of poker?

    I used to play a lot of online poker, but quit when poker stars and full tilt left the US. Are there any legit sites that have satellite tournaments? Are there good satellites in vegas for it and if so what are the dates/buy in. Thanks guys

    You may opt for Satellites & Super Sats to get in through out WSOP for multiple events.. Check the Harrah's WSOP Circuit events held around the country.

    satellites live at Vegas are the nuts. You can safely assume they are shark free since most sharks just buy in. If you win one, you can keep playing and just convert your subsequent winnings to cash or sell the seat to somebody.

    You'll find satellites and super satellites of various sizes at Rio and a few other scattered (mostly CET) properties around Vegas. This is probably how most people will get in this year. The games have a reputation for being very soft, but they're highly juiced and poorly structured.

    The Rio sats had a decent structure and ran 7 times a day. $2000+$225 and generally had between 15-40 people.

    You'll be fine with a Windows emulator.
