One of the most special parts about Event #78: $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship is the fact that 50 players have been able to take their seats without paying a cent! Well, not directly at least.

Every day throughout the series, PokerNews sponsored daily deepstack tournaments in the Normandy and Provence Ballrooms in Horseshoe Las Vegas, with $200, $250, and $400 buy-in tournaments all taking place at 8:00 p.m., 1:00 p.m., and 4:00 p.m., respectively. Cashing and running deep in these tournaments earned them points, and points meant prizes.

Each week, a leaderboard was completed, with points accumulated in the same manner as those for the WSOP Player of the Year. The top ten players from each week earned a free entry into this event, with 50 having been given out after five weeks of deepstack competition.
