WSOP - WSOP Qualification Strategy

High Buy-in Satellite Strategy

A lot of satellites have buy-ins of $500 or more. These tournaments tend to award a relatively large number of WSOP packages in relation to the number of entrants. For these tournaments, a typical ratio is one package per twenty entrants.

You do not want to foolishly lose your stack at the beginning of this type of satellite. You do not need to be overly aggressive because there are not as many people you have to defeat and since the buyin is relatviely high the tournament will probably have a long structure. The key is being selectively aggressive and trying to accumulate chips, though you shouldn't be too overconcerned with the average stack size.

Again, you are going to want to be contested as little as possible as the end of the tournament nears. The ability to steal blinds is still of high importance. For this type of tournament, the end game of the tournament begins quite quickly! Try to achieve an above-average stack before the large blinds and antes kick in.
