BodogPoker has guaranteed 5 WSOP Main Event Prize Packages every week, two awarded on each Sunday. Due to a considerable decline in tournament entries, it has become especially easy to win a seat in the 2008 WSOP Main Event via the online poker room.
In the past two weeks, BodogLife.com (formerly Bodog.com) has seen an average of 66 players competing in the Sunday tournament. Even with such low entry rates, Bodog Poker continues to dole out the two promised WSOP Main Event Prize Packages each weekend.
It costs $250 to buy-in to the tournament directly, but more affordable satellite tournaments are held throughout the weekend, awarding a seat in Sunday’s WSOP Main Event Semifinal tournament. As to why participation levels have been so low, we can only speculate; but the fact that the Sunday Main Event Semifinals are held at 3:15 a.m. ET might have something to do with it.
Each 2008 WSOP Main Event Prize Package awarded by Bodog Poker is worth $12,000. The first $10,000 goes to cover the buy-in costs at the World Series of Poker Main Event. The remaining $2,000 is awarded to cover travel costs and accommodations throughout the tournament, plus spending cash.
The 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event is scheduled to kick off July 3rd in the Amazon Room of the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Bodog Poker will be hosting WSOP Main Event Semifinals every Sunday through the end of June, up until the start of the poker world’s most prestigious event; the World Series of Poker.
