What's The Best Way to Qualify For a WPT Event?

Is it your dream to play in a World Poker Tour event? If it is, you share the same dream as many of your fellow poker players.

Imagine what it would be like to sit down at the WPT branded felt, riffling chips and playing for a potentially life-changing sum of money. It would be awesome, wouldn’t it? Now imagine how special the feeling would be if you managed to win you way to a WPT event for next to nothing.

At the recent WPT500 UK, we caught up with some of our online qualifiers and asked them how they won their seats to the prestigious event; some of them won their packages for as little as $1! How amazing is that?

Head to the partypoker lobby now, click on the “Live Events” tab and you will see there are qualifiers running that feed into the upcoming WPT National UK. The buy-ins for these qualifiers start as low as $1 and increase to a still-affordable $50 and you have until February 8, 2015 to win your way to the exciting WPT National UK event before the qualifiers disappear for good.

What is the WPT National UK?

The WPT National UK is one of the most exciting tournaments on the circuit today thanks to its unique accumulator format. Each WPT National UK Main Event have three starting flights that cost £200 each and you can play in one, two or all three of them should you wish. Should you reach Day 2 more than once, you combine all of your chips into one Day 2 stack!

Oh, and let’s not forget the added extras such as special prize giveaways and our renowned Players Party that you’re all invited to!

When is the Next WPT National UK Event?

You don’t have long to wait until the next WPT National UK event takes place because one is scheduled for February 12, 2015. On this date, the increasingly popular tour returns to Apsers Casino in Stratford London where the likes of Gabriel Tuna and Laurence Houghton won their titles and their bankroll-boosting prizes of £22,000 and £26,900!

As mentioned, qualifiers and satellites run at partypoker until February 8, 2015 which gives you plenty of time to bag yourself a seat in what will be one of the most exciting live poker events of the year.
