In New Jersey, players will find the qualifiers running at 6pm with a $20 buy-in and one $1,165 package to the event on the table. In Nevada, players can compete at 4pm for $10 to earn two seats up for grabs with a $20 qualifier running at 6pm that will guarantee one seat.

WSOP is also offering qualifiers for the Main Event, having started running the option in March, and now added even more choices. These qualifiers will run on Saturdays in Nevada and on Tuesdays in New Jersey.

These are just a few of the current promotions players will find at the WSOP. From qualifiers for the WSOP to freerolls and specialty tournaments, WSOP offers a great deal for online poker players to enjoy. For the WSOP qualifiers, players still have a few weeks to participate and hopefully earn a seat to the Main Event or the Colossus II.
