They ran these last year as well. If you manage to register, sit out the first orbit of blinds. If you do that at least 1/4 of the field will be gone. Then you can settle in and play poker.

Thanks for the heads up OP. This is a great way for us folks without 10k to spare to get into one of poker's greatest tournaments. I will take advantage of this opportunity and whoever else has always wanted to enter the wsop should also take advantage of this. Keep learning good poker and good luck all.

This next bit is just hearsay, but I thought I stick it in here anyway:



If you win a prize package to the 2009 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event at Full Tilt Poker, our Events Department will contact you with two options.

Your first and most exciting option is to play in the Main Event which takes place in Las Vegas in July. This is the single largest tournament in the world, and if you choose to play, our Events Department will provide you with instructions on withdrawing your winnings. Please note that you are responsible for using these funds for your tournament registration, travel and accommodations.

If you decide not to play in the 2009 Main Event or are unable to play, our Events Department will credit your Full Tilt Poker account with the value of your prize package in Tournament Dollars (T$), for you to use on Full Tilt Poker as you wish.

---------------------

I also read on their rules that if you win more then one round 2 ticket you can exchange these for ironman points.

I think i will give the tournaments up because it is too much work and only a small group of players get a buy in for this tournament (WSOP 2009)
