PartyPoker qualifying trio make poker debut at the WSOP<\/a>.<\/p>\n

PartyPoker player tehh_pwnerex just secured himself a package for this year\u2019s WSOP. \u201cI took the route of being patient for the most part\u201d he says.\u00a0\u201cThe key moment was when I got lucky and managed to win one of my final pots when I had the worst hand.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, you can\u2019t win a big tournament without winning a few coinflips!<\/p>\n

The WSOP experience will be extra special for tehh_pwnerex because it\u2019s his first ever live poker event. \u201cI haven’t played any major events yet. So far I\u2019m online-only. One of my friends told me about PartyPoker.com<\/a> and told me it was one of the best sites to play on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tehh_pwnerex tells us he has two hopes for his WSOP trip:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To meet Phil Ivey (\u201cHe\u2019s the best in the game\u201d)<\/li>\n
  2. Run good.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All my attention was on the game<\/h3>\n

    PartyPoker player Nik_Red also qualified for the WSOP on PartyPoker. He won his package during a business trip. \u201cAll my attention was on the game\u201d he admits.<\/p>\n

    Nik_Red has been playing poker since November 2009, and the WSOP Main Event will be his first live tournament. \u201cI\u2019ve never played offline before\u201d reveals Nik_Red. Wow – what a debut!<\/p>\n

    Nik_Red is looking forward to meeting poker pros at the WSOP. \u201cI would like to meet Daniel Negreanu and also Allen Cunningham, but I wouldn\u2019t like to play with them. You are probably understand me.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Nik_Red\u2019s poker advice: \u201cIf you would like to become a hero get ready to die for it.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Talk about dodging bullets!<\/p>\n

    Thanks to success in an $80\u00a0satellite<\/h3>\n

    PartyPoker player Kingy187 will arrive at the WSOP thanks to success in an $80 satellite. “It\u00a0went well, until the final table” he says. “I lost a 60 \/ 40 hand and was down to 4-5 big blinds. But I came back after winning two coin-flips with 22 and 55, and then had some chips to go to work.”<\/p>\n

    Kingy187 began playing PartyPoker<\/a> 4 years ago at NL $10. “I like Party because of the software and constantly having new ideas with promotions. I also like the fact that they got some games running at $10\/$20 and $25\/$50 NLHE. It’s my site of choice nowadays”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
