First, what is your best game? Many players that are only Holdem Poker players just looked at this article in utter confusion. The World Series of Poker is a set of over 50 tournaments. While No-Limit Holdem Poker is the most popular game in the world, you have many other games to contend with. Omaha Poker, Omaha Hi-Lo Split, Seven Card Stud, Seven Card Stud 8 or Better, Razz Poker, 2-7 Lowball, and H.O.R.S.E. are all events that are played annually at the World Series of Poker.

If you are a holdem player, are you better at Limit or No-Limit. If you are a mediocre No-Limit player and a regular winner at limit, then you will want to play limit holdem. If Stud is your best game, you will want to play stud. Another consideration is where you have the most success in regards to tournaments. Personally, my best game is Stud 8 or Better. However, at the time that I played my first World Series of Poker in 2006, I was showing better overall results in Limit Holdem events. As a result, I played in Event #4, which was Limit Holdem. I made the money of the event.

After you decide what you want to play, you want to decide how much you want to spend. Do you want to buy-in directly to the event or satellite your way in? If you want to satellite your way in, how much does the event cost you want to play. If you want to enter a $1,500 event, you will need to play $175 satellites. If you want to play a $2,000 event, you will need to play the $225. The satellites go up according to the buy-in of the event. I would recommend spending no more than 3 to 4 satellite entries to try and win your way in. If you cannot win your way in, try again for a different event or buy-in directly.

If you want to take off the pressure of having to win a satellite, then put back the money for a buy-in and then play satellites to try and save money. Personally, the later is the approach I take. As a result, I put back around $2,200 for each event. For the 2007 WSOP, I didn’t even play satellites for the first event which was again a Limit Holdem event. Fortunately, I finished very well in the money and was able to pay most of my other entries for the series with the money won.

So to review, play the game that gives you the best chance to do well. Then decide the plan of attack to enter the event. Beyond that, make a budget for the money you want to spend for cash games and souvenirs and stick to that plan. Have fun at the World Series of Poker!
