MILLIONS STEPS Satellite News

It only took 1 hand in the “hand per hand” format to eliminate the 11th player, and reward the 10 remaining players with a STEP 2 seat.

The hand was over in a flash. When Serge Dube peeked at his hole cards, he wasted no time shoving all-in. Table leader Kevin Côté snapped called and both players tabled their hands.

Serge Dubé:

Dubé knew he was in trouble unless the board turned out to be very friendly. The flop did nothing to help, but not everything was lost. Any ten would be great for him, or the board could still double-pair and make it a split-pot. The turn was pretty good: . Now Serge could add all the 7’s to his outs. But a on the river did not help and Serge was sent to the rail.

This hand put an end to the game and made ten players pretty happy. They will be back for the STEP 2 this Saturday March 23rd at 8:00pm

Congratulations to all the winners:

• Kevin Côté
• Michèle Oriente
• Alexandre Mongrain
• Gaël Dauphinais
• Jo-Anne Beauchesne
• Elvira Popescu
• Mitcheal Ferguson
• Kamal Sadaka
• Krzystof Birecki
• Jason Guiley

The 13 players still in the satellite are very close to winning their seat for the STEP 2. A whopping 10 seats are up for grabs. With a total of 19 entries, including 1 re-entry, this is a huge value for the players wanting to get in to the Main Event at a tiny price.

Players can register directly for the STEP 2 $400 + $40 Satellite which is set to take place on Saturday, March 23rd at 8:00pm.

Here are some photos of the players taken during level 10.

The March Power Weekend is offering players lots of ways to play their way in to the premier event of the year, the MILLIONS North America, beginning with tonight’s STEP 1 satellite.

As with all other STEP 1 satellites, tonight’s edition comes at a modest $80 + $10 buy-in with a turbo re-entry format. But unlike some of the others, tonight’s satellite guarantees at least ten STEP 2 seats. Those who advance will be automatically registered for the STEP 2 satellite on March 23 at 8pm.

Players can buy-in directly to any STEP along the way, but the STEP 1s offer some unbeatable value. Nowhere else will you find an opportunity to get into such a big tournament at such a tiny fraction of the buy-in cost. There have already been a number of qualifiers to play their way into the Main Event from a single STEP 1 entry, and tonight is your chance to be the next one!
