The 2018 World Series of Poker (WSOP) in Las Vegas, the 49th annual edition, runs from May 29-July 17 at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino. It features 78 bracelet-awarding events and you could be playing in two of those for only a couple of cents thanks to the satellites running online at 888poker.

888poker is the WSOP’s official sponsor and this gives them the right to run satellites to the live events. Packages to two massive WSOP events can be won online at 888poker from as little as $0.01.

WSOP Crazy Eights Package

The Crazy Eights No-Limit Hold’em 8-Handed is an $888 buy-in tournament with $888,888 guaranteed for first place. Play in this fantastic tournament, event 62A on the WSOP schedule, begins on Jun. 30 with the first of four starting flights and runs through to July 3 when its champion is crowned.

888poker is running satellites to the $160 buy-in WSOP Crazy Eights Package Qualifier where at least one $2,700 package is guaranteed to be won. This package awards its winner:

  • $888 entry to the Crazy Eights events
  • Three nights’ accommodation at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino
  • $1,050 for travel and expenses

When the Crazy Eights tournament ran in 2017, Alexandru Papazian topped a field of 8,120 to get his hands on $888,888. Everyone at the final table received at least $86,888.

Satellites into the $160 buy-in WSOP Crazy Eights Package Qualifier start as low as $0.01.

WSOP Main Event Package

The tournament that every poker player in the world wants to win is the WSOP Main Event. Not only does this tournament award a massive multi-million dollar top prize, it also gives the winner the title of world champion for 12 months.

Last year, Scott Blumstein defeated Dan Ott heads-up for the title after outlasting a field of 7,221. Blumstein walked away with a massive $8,150,000 and bragging rights over his peers.

It could be you who is crowned world champion this year if you manage to win a $12,600 package to the 2018 WSOP Main Event. The weekly $1,050 WSOP 2018 Main Event Package - Qualifier may be out of the reach of most players’ bankrolls, but you can win your way into it from $12.

Players who win one of these packages will receive the $10,000 entry to the 2018 WSOP Main Event, hotel accommodation and spending money. Twenty-two players have won packages so far, including 888poker ambassador and former Main Event champion Martin “MJacobson888” Jacobson.
