It would be good to participate in any of these tournaments. But from Argentina to the United States is quite the price of tickets, hopefully at some point come to play a WSOP. If you come to play and I would cover 10,000 usd with that part of the passages and play:
1
Casino Employees NL Hold'em$ 565
11B
PLO GIANT$ 365
37
No-Limit Hold'em$ 1,500​

In my case, it's not so easy) Since 10,000 is not enough for NL Hold'em High, I'm 1st RollerFree, June 1st, 3:00 PM 4 Days $ 100,000, then I would have to take part and win, of course, NL Hold'em Super Turbo Bounty Wed, May 30th, 3:00 PM 1 Day $ 10,000:star:

I think I would choose event number three. I seem to do good in bounty tourneys and I love turbo formats. (Still working on the patience issues...)

About WSOP

Hey guys! I never played even offline poker, only online experience, but hope one day i will start enjoy and get some experience.

I was very surpriced, when i saw some of you friends typed that you'll play 10k buy-in tournament if you get 10k$ for wsop events :D.
In my opinion, the way better (in my case of course, i never played offline) for almost all players to get many shot's with lower buy-ins like 300$+ 500$+ , more shots/chances get ITM, but not just one ticket worth 10k$ :D. That is madness!) But anyway, if you are a rich guy/girl and you just have fun, enjoy! Good luck and have fun everyone who'll join WSOP this year!

in any game the main thing that would be at the table with Daniel Negreanu. it is a pity that I do not know English (I will learn ). a week ago, I would say with confidence that only unlimited hold'em but recently everything has changed I tried to play for a long time limit Omaha and I just fell in love with this kind of game it is incredibly pleasant (bots have less opportunities to win )

If i were to have 10K and the chance to participate,I would perfer to play an array of games, It would be so overwhelming, i think the first few games could easily take your focus off before feeling comfortable and getting ur game on
GIANT=365
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 =1500
COLOSSUS =1500
MILLIONAIRE MAKER=1500
SENIORS No-Limit Hold'em =1000..never no who what u hear
No Limit Hold'em =3000

While it is always the dream to play the 10k Main event, I think if I was given 10k I would try to maximize my chances by playing in a few different events. A lot of the games look interesting, and I think I would lean towards freezouts rather than the ones with re-entry. The No Limit Hold'em and PLO KOs look fun (51, 59, 67) , as well as the Millionaire Maker (21). So that's 5,500 of 10,000 spent. Then I think I would also chose 54 and 66, both NLHe events @ 3,000 and 1,500 to make it the even 10k. So that's 6 games total and would be a blast! I guess I'll have to start saving up to come out there one of these years coming up :).
Good luck to everyone that is playing this year! I wish you tons of luck and run good, and hope you bring home some $$$$$$$!

If I received $ 10,000 to play some WSOP tournament, I would choose this one: Event # 43; Event Title No-Limit Hold'em; Event date: Thur, June 21st, 11:00 AM; Duration: 3 Days; Buyn: $ 2,500. The other $ 7,500 would have to pay to stay in the hotel, food court. I can say silly, I have no idea the size of this tournament. Even with all this guide, if I had $ 10,000 to play the WSOP I would need an advisor on which tournament to play. More would have to be holdem. Here in the online is already more adrenaline, the more in a gigantic event so it must be wonderful.

It ultimately depends on how long I have off from work.

If I only have a short amount of time, then the ME would be the only event I'd play. On the bucket list, it's the one everyone wants and to be in a tournament room with thousands of people would be an experience unlike no other. Plus the best chance to get seated with a pro!

If I could take the entire festival off I'd save the ME and play a bunch of smaller events:
#6 - GIANT - $365
#7 - COLOSSUS - $565
#17 - No Limit Holdem 6MAX - $1500
#21 - Millionaire Maker - $1500
#34 - Double Stack NL Hold Em - $1000
#45 - No Limit Holdem 30min Levels - $1000
#48 - NL Hold Em Monster Stack - $1500
#68 - The Little One for One Drop - $1111
#75 - The Closer - $1M Guarantee - $1500

I'm $41 bucks over - but I'd scrounge that up to make this work.

I have observed that in these events, the Omaha H / L tournaments are very profitable, of course if you know how to play them.
so my decision would be to play at least a few of these tournaments.
in the link calendar I only found this one:
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Thurs, May 31st, 3:00 PM 3 Days $ 1,500


but I'm sure I've seen more in pokerstars.

Of course, it would be the main event.
I believe we have to watch the WSOP well, this is the most prestigious poker event in the world.
One thing I do not agree with, it seems that the organizers are lowering the winnings of the winner, because they want the prize better divided into ITM.

Normally who organizes is Poker888, but I think the sites should organize satellite for the event, even though it is worldwide.
While there will be lots of sponsored players from PokerStars and other sites, those people who have friendships and business contacts could ask for sponsorship to play in the main event, this would be a good idea for those who have no money and even more if you are in the United States, a country that poker is a culture.

Interesting all the events from all modalities to qualify both in online games and live there in Rio, for this great event of the world poker series to be held in Las Vegas with players from around the world and a good prize pool
