Players can buy directly into the event by contacting the Sporting Emporium. Registration opens at noon on December 9 and the tournament begins at 14:00. Alternatively, players can qualify through satellites at PaddyPowerPoker.com. One takes place tomorrow, December 1, at 23:00 ($30 re-buy plus reg. $1.50) whilst the other is scheduled for December 6 at 23:00 ($30 re-buy plus reg. $1.50).
