Who is going to play this year?

I will play the following tourneys:

08 Sep 08:00 NL Hold'em [WCOOP Kickoff] $109.00 ($500,000 Gtd)
14 Sep 11:00 NL Hold'em $109.00 ($750,000 Gtd)

The other tourneys are too expensive.

Good luck all in the WCOOP !

Going to start grinding sattelites next week saw there where allot of main event sats for just 33 $ BALLLERSSS.

Sorry to bust your bubble but those sats are 3xTurbo rebuys and gonna cost you as much as other sats. Just pointin it out.

I'm sooooo jelly of all the people who can play in the WCOOP. All us Americans have to look forward to is the Poker Maximus...what a joke that is.

i miss stars

I'm going to play a few of these.

one day I'll get there!

I'm going to try play a couple of these hopefully.

Pretty sure I'm playing event #1 $109.

Outside my bankroll range right now maybe next year. GL to all those playing in the series tho........scorp

I will be playing every NL event in the series that happens on weekends.
Question though - I took a look at the schedule on the website, and I don't see any way to tell which events are 2-day events. Does anybody know which events are 2-day ones, or where I can look that up?

Good luck to all the cardschat members who are going to play the WCOOP

you know what really sucks is when you play the freeroll and top 50 get a ticket and you but out in 54th! bahhhhhhh oh and getting your money in with the best hand AK to A10 flop 10 10 A. Now that hurts! oh well that's poker and that's why I love it, Freeroll starts in a few minutes time to grind it out. See yall and goodluck to everyone grinding for a seat fellow cc members. God I love this site. Such a beauty!

these tournaments are way above my bankroll. So only If I will win any ticket from freerolls. Maybe next year I will be on this level Anyway goodluck to all cardschat memberss who will play them.

Did any CC members play and cash in any WCOOP events?
