ClubWPT Qualifier Sepideh Moghaddam Seeks to Have Fun at WPT Wynn

The World Poker Tour (WPT) ushers in its 20th anniversary this year and has been celebrating all year long and thing will culminate at Wynn Las Vegas with its $10,400 buy-in, $15 million GTD WPT World Championship. It will be held from December 12-20, with 22 other events also on the Wynn WPT World Championship schedule.

A tournament of this size with a $15 million dollar guarantee will attract its fair share of high-profile poker players, and will also be a televised event. Its field will also be filled with satellite winners and qualifiers as the Wynn, WPT, and ClubWPT have all been running special promotions awarding passports and entries into the championship tournament.

ClubWPT awarded its final qualifier a passport into the championship on November 13th. The winner of each satellite won a $12,000 Passport to the WPT World Championship. The passport included the tournament buy-in, as well as a hotel and travel stipend.

However, you can still win an entry into the tournament by playing one of the Wynn��s live $1,100 buy-in satellites, which run up to December, with a mega-satellite on December 11th, which will award at least 50 entries into the tournament. You can also play on WPT Global which will also be awarding seats up to the end of November.

It's Fun Being a Woman in Poker

PokerNews recently caught up with Sepideh Moghaddam, one of these ClubWPT qualifiers who won her passport at ClubWPT��s July 24th event.

��I learned how to play poker when I was very young from my dad,�� she reminisced. ��He is a professional poker player and well-known in the industry.��

She added, ��I always enjoyed playing poker because it��s a challenge and a lot of skills are needed to play. Also, as a female poker player, it��s always fun to get the reactions from the men when they see me at a table.��

With Sepideh��s busy work schedule, she signed up for ClubWPT because she could play from the comfort of home and give herself a much-needed break from her busy day. She��s been to Vegas multiple times but has never played a poker tournament while in town, so the WPT World Championship will be her first foray into a large Vegas tournament.

Sepideh saiad excitedly, that she is ��hoping the cards are right for me at this big event at the Wynn.�� However, her goal for this tournament ��is to have fun and really enjoy my time both at the table and away from it.��

��I��m super excited about this event and can��t wait to get the full experience from the WPT!��
