888poker is making it easy for players to join in on the action in the XL Blizzard by not only making the buy-ins affordable but also hosting tons of satellites where you can get in cheaply.

Some of the satellites even allow you to get into events for free. If you already have an account at 888poker and have made a deposit, you should have already received two free tickets for daily freeroll satellites to the Mini Opening Event and the Main Event. You can earn more tickets to these freerolls by completing simple missions.

If you don't have an account yet, you can also grab three free tickets simply by signing up to 888poker through PokerNews and making your first deposit of at least $10 using the "BLIZZARD10" bonus code.

888poker is inviting players that participate in at least five XL Blizzard Events into a freeroll that awards a $12,600 WSOP Main Event package to the winner and three $2,700 Crazy 8’s packages to those who finish second through fourth.

Top Five Stacks

Level 4 : 250/500, 60 ante

"Oksana5404" has been in the chip lead ever since "whynotgamble" doubled up an opponent. Here is a look at the top five stacks.

"Cousinwizz" Doubles Off "whynotgamble"

Level 4 : 250/500, 60 ante

"Whynotgamble" opened to 1,200 from middle position and got a call from "cousinwizz" from the big blind.

"Cousinwizz" check-raised a bet of 2,033 to 5,266 after the {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{q-Diamonds} came on the flop and "whynotgamble" called. "Cousinwizz" then bet 8,391 after the {8-Hearts} came on the turn and got a call again.

The {9-Spades} completed the board on the river and "cousinwizz" jammed. "Whynotgamble" took a few moments before making the call.

"Cousinwizz" with {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts} won the hand with trips after "whynotgamble" turned over {q-Spades}{10-Spades} for two-pair.
