Nitsche Thrilled by "Prestigious" WPTDeepStacks
With over $18m in lifetime earnings, Nitsche is no stranger to major festivals. He says he's looking forward to the festival on 888poker.
"I'm thrilled," he said. "I play every big buy-in tournament there is and the fact that 888poker finally brought something as prestigious as the WPT Deepstacks online is fantastic. To be honest this is exactly what I asked for a while ago so I'm really happy to get the feeling of an 888 live event back.
"It's going to be extra special because I'll make sure to stream as much of the series as I can."
With three separate festivals in three separate markets, Nitsche says that the festival is "truly for everyone" and that players in Italy, Spain and Portugal are "in for a treat."

How to Qualify for 888poker WPTDS Online
Nitsche says that he'll be jumping into the Main and the High Roller, but for players whose bank rolls aren't as bulging, there are tons of satellites.
"You can qualify for as little as $0.01!" said Nitsche. "I'm pretty sure there's $109 satellites running to the main event every day. Even if that's too expensive for you sub satellites start at a much lower price. If you're looking to get in to a side event: Don't worry we got satellites coming up for these too!"
The new 888poker app is available for free download on iOS and Android devices.
Not only are satellites attractively priced, but the Mini versions of your favorite WPTDS events will help if you fail to qualify for the big events. Nitsche says they're fantastic.
"It's the next best thing to playing in the big events. I might even hop into a few of these on the side depending on how I feel. Mini only refers to the buy-in and not the prize pool! So don't hesitate to give them a try."
