Credit: Paul Condron and PKR.It’s getting to that time of year when everyone begins to turn their sights to Vegas and the World Series of Poker. PKR.com has now launched its 2011 World Series of Poker Experience satellites, meaning not only can players get to the ultimate poker festival for cheap, but PKR has also thrown in a few unforgettable extras.

The winner of each final stage tournament will receive a $4,200 package. This includes entry to WSOP event no. 54, $1,000 for flights and travel, $500 spending money, six nights’ accommodation, a WSOP goody bag, and access to a whole host of VIP events.

This is where the “experience” comes in – those who qualify for the WSOP via PKR.com will also get a real taste of party life in Sin City with exclusive invitations to the official PKR pool party, the 4th of July dinner, the official PKR party, and a tour of Las Vegas.

Final Stage tournaments take place Wednesday nights at 7.20 p.m. (GMT) from now until Jun. 15. There are a variety of satellites to suit a wide range of pockets with buy-ins ranging from $2.30 to $215. For the cheapest route, there are lotteries running from as little as $0.45.

PKR Marketing Director, Simon Prodger, said, “We’d rather send a bunch of players to Vegas to have a great time than send a just a few to the Main Event. PKR Experience Packages are a great way to experience all the excitement of playing a World Series event, enjoying 5* Vegas and partying like a rockstar.”

Elsewhere at the site, players are also attempting to win their way into PKR Live VI. The site recently launched two special routes and qualifiers are currently running for as little as $2.10.
