Tournament Director Ralph Brandt made an announcement across the poker room in regards to the 3:00pm $70 "Step 1" Satellite that started moments ago.  Three seats are guaranteed into the $340 Mega that runs on October 26 (into the Main Event).  It's an opportunity to gain entry to a $1,500 Main Event for just $70...and we've all heard the stories before, about turning one of these satellites into a life changing score.
