WSOP Steps at Absolute

The Perfect 10

To celebrate the launch of Steps at Absolute Poker, the first 10 players to win a WSOP* seat will also receive an Aruba Classic buy-in worth $5,500.

Here's The Deal

For just 10 cents, you can win:

A chance to win poker's richest pot worth an estimated $10 million at the WSOP*.
An Aruba Classic buy-in where the prize pool will be worth approximately $2 million, if you are one of the first TEN players to qualify for the grand prize seat from STEP 1.
Last year's main event winner won more than $9 million.

Will you take it down in 2009?

It costs $10,000 to buy a seat to the World Series of Poker*. At Absolute Poker, you can win one for just 10 cents.

$10 Million Extra

Still not tempted? How about a TEN MILLION DOLLAR sweetener?

Win the 2009 World Series of Poker*, after qualifying through AP, wearing our branded gear, and we will add an extra $10,000,000 to the pot.

Get In Steps

Steps tournaments are great value for money. In short, you buy in for just a few cents. If you finish in the top two, you 'step' up to a richer game. If you lose, you step backwards with the option to try again.

What is a STEP tournament?

A STEP tournament is a type of Sit-n-Go that allows you to win your seat in major land-based events for a significantly low buy-in. Absolute Poker offers 10 STEP tournaments, with the final STEP featuring the big prize. Players advance from one STEP to the next by finishing first in a STEP. Players who don't finish first or second but still rank high enough will be invited to replay the STEP.

How does it work?

Each STEP tournament series consists of 10 STEPS, or 10 individual Sit-n-Go tournaments. The buy-in for the first STEP is $0.10. As the STEPS advance, the buy-ins increase.

How do I move through each STEP?

First two winners of STEP 1 advances to STEP 2 without having to buy in. The first two winners of STEP 2 advances to STEP 3, and so on. This goes on until STEP 10 where the winner secures the final land-based tournament package.

What's this about trying again?

If you don't finish first in a STEP, it's not necessarily game over. STEP tournaments give players the opportunity to replay a STEP, depending on how they finish in a tournament. That means as long as you can finish high enough, you can still hang on to fight another day and conquer your way to the next STEP.

Can I enter a STEP tournament at any STEP?

Yes. However, you'll have to buy directly in with cash. The only way to secure your spot in a STEP tournament for free is by advancing from a previous STEP.

do you know if you can trade in your entries for t dollars or cash. like if you just want the money, and don't want to play step 7.
