The buy-in for each leg of the GUKPT event is £1,000 + £50; however it is possible to get involved for much less. Super Satellite qualifiers enable you to win a seat for a fraction of the price of buying in directly.
Online qualification is only available via Blue Square Poker with 3 super-satellites per week – on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. The winners of these super satellites win a GUKPT package, which consists of the £1,050 buy in fee plus the remainder in expenses. The Wednesday and Friday super satellites are $100 rebuy tournaments. The Sunday super satellites are freezeout tournaments. You can buy in directly to these super satellite qualifiers, or win a seat in them through one of three daily satellites (The buy-ins for these daily satellites are $3, $5 and $10 re-buys). Finally, there are three freerolls per day, which are completely free to enter. Players can enter as many of these as they wish. All players making the final table of each freeroll win a seat into one of the three daily satellites.
