WPEX WSOP Final EventWorld Poker Exchange (AKA WSEX Poker / WPX) / WPEX) is offering players a chance to play in the 2008 World Series of Poker* Main Event. With so many online poker rooms offering WSOP* satellites its rarely newsworthy to write about a single poker rooms offers unless it’s a really high value or unique offer. Based on the fact that WPX is such a small sites, but happens to be backed by one of the most respected gambling companies in the world and the fact they offer an amazing 80% rakeback all grouped with the fact this is an excellent chance for players to freeroll their way to the Main Event; we felt it newsworthy to pass along their offer.
