The 2021 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event is just over two months away, but several players have already locked up their seats to through ClubGG.

For just $49.99 a month, players can battle their way through three stages in the hopes of securing some of the 10 Main Event seats guaranteed between now and the end of August.

One of the first players to secure their seat was Francisco Estrada who spoke with PokerNews about the experience, and how he plans to prepare for the biggest poker tournament of his life.

Unlimited Attempts at WSOP Main Event Seats for $49.99

Ten seats, each worth $10,000, to the 2021 World Series of Poker Main Event are up for grabs between August 2-22 as GGPoker lights a fire under the ClubGG site.

"Surreal" Experience for Estrada

It's been ten years since Francisco Estrada first discovered poker. A decade later, he says he's still grinding and playing to try and perfect his passion.

"Being a professional poker player is a goal of mine," said the 27-year-old. "I've played in WSOP events before, but the Main Event has always been on my list."

A couple of weeks ago, Estrada discovered ClubGG through PokerNews and hurriedly read through the article describing the steps players have to do in order to win a WSOP Main Event seat.

"The article was only five minutes old! I clicked on it and it told me all the steps and all the different stages. I felt it was meant for me."

And now, having battled through the stages, Estrada finally has his hands on a WSOP Main Event seat.

"Poker is one of my biggest passions and it's a huge part of my life. It feels amazing. Too surreal. I still can't wrap my head around what's going on. All the support and love has made me realize what I did.

"If I cash it's going to be for my daughter. There's so much motivation that comes into it. I'm excited about the future."
