Woman Poker Player Magazine is offering special satellites to a sample of games in the PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP).  The satellites are being held exclusively to encourage more women into playing mixed games and championships.  Depending on the response from the female poker community, the initial three satellite games will be expanded.

To take advantage of this opportunity, and to encourage more special events for women only to satellite into online poker's premier poker championships, all women are invited to join the Woman Poker Player community where the passwords will be made available. 

With a smaller field, there is a good chance that by expanding on this initiative, we may see more women playing in mixed game championships.
