I've never played a satellite, so forgive my question... But when you play in satellites they give you Tournament dollars? Does this mean that say you played in 5 satellites you might have enough to play in a sit and go with you W $ they gave you? Is this right? Also, I checked out tradepoker.com. They sell T $ and W $. Is that a legitimate site? Also, what is the difference to where you can use T $ and W $? If I'm playing sit and goes wouldn't it make sense for me to buy a bunch of tourney dollars from someone if I have to pay 90 cents on the dollar rather than buying in through the site for the whole thing?

Yeah, if you unregister after winning a satellite (or win multiple entries), they give you T$ or W$. T$ are for any regular tourney or satellite whereas you get W$ from (and can only use them for) WCOOP events and satellites. I don't really know much about tradepoker.com so I can't say anything about that. If you're really serious about just playing SNGs, then buying cheap T$ seems like a good option.

In concept, you are right, but I have never actually seen any T$ available at tradepoker.com, only W$. Seems to me there would be a colossal demand for T$ at 90 cents on the dollar, or at 95 cents on the dollar for that matter.

I bought from Tradepoker and it worked smoothly. Seems like they are skimming by buying at 80% and selling at 90%. Pretty smart business if you ask me.
