How do you enter the World Series of poker?

Answer 1

There are several ways to register for a WSOP event. The most common way to register for an event is to simply show up while the WSOP is in progress on-site at the Rio Convention Center registration desk within days/hours of the start of your event(s), and proceed to buy-in using cash or live casino chips.

Registration is open 24 hours a day from May 30 until July 10. If the WSOP registration desk is closed, the Rio Main Cage in the Casino will always accept registration for WSOP events. Players looking to play cash games, satellites or daily non-bracelet events may still buy-in at the Rio Convention Center registration desk. The WSOP also accepts pre-registration for any bracelet event up to 14 days prior to the start of an event, as this ensures your seat will be reserved regardless if an event is sold out.

Answer 2

For the Main event, you must pay a 10 000 $ entrance fee + 1 000 $ rake.

The fees will form the prizes and the rake is for the casino.

You can enter the tournament with cash or you can win a ticket for it in Satellite tournaments.
