really, are these things worth a damn? I got 8000 of 'em. I already have all the books and I don't want a freeroll into a satellite.

Just asking, man. Maybe I'm overlooking something.

Hmm. Lately they've been worth $430 to me, as in two $200+15 seats won in FPP satellites.

You do know you can unregister for the tournament and take the Tournament Dollars (T$) to enter any other tournament if you prefer, including SnG's, right?

If you can't use the points, send 'em over to me, I'll put them to work.

Use your FPP points to play satilite tournaments for the Sunday $500,000 and if you win a seat, unregister for the Sunday tourny, and you'll have 215 T$s you can use for SNGs.

Edit: I'm too slow.

a man with a plan. I like it! Thanks. I may just play in the $530 anyway...but at least it's good to know I have options beyond crappy clothing and longshot MTTs.

Do you only get $215 in T$ or $530 for win the sat to the 700k?

The buy in is $530!

a few weeks back I played 2 of the 36 person 375 FPP tourneys (they dont have the 375's this week since the sunday tourney is $530).

anyway, got 1st in one, used the $215 tourney dollars to play SNGs and my account was $310 higher by the time i used them up. good times.

If you play sngs, you can win a sunday guaranteed satellite seat and then cash out and use the T$ to play sngs.

I wish they had 5k+ FPP tourneys lol. I have so many but it's just not worth my time to play low buy-in multi-table tournaments.

Just play the FPP 1 table satalites and unregister after you win. That is if you can stay of the 27s for half a second. I think I see you more than anyone other player.

Hey! Some of that clothing is really quite cool. And it helps you pick up girls - yeah, that's the ticket.

Practice this:

Why yes, my dear, I actually am good friends with Chris Moneymaker and Greg Raymer. Just the other day, I was saying to Joe (Hachem, you know) that...

But indeed you can always use them for S&amp;G satellites to the $200 and $500 events. And we're getting ready to roll out an FPP-program-on-steroids that's going to get your attention too.

Best regards,

The Stars FPP program beats the hell out of the Party program IMO. Better clothing quality /images/graemlins/smile.gif
