Re: WSOP: Bubbling better than a weak cash?
 

When I was talking about most online satellites being transferable, I was thinking about the satellites to larger online tournaments that run on a weekly basis.

You are right that the same rules would apply to an event like the PCA. The hotel room would be the same as the tournament since you would get no benefit from the room if you stayed at home. Stars would probably tell you the cost of the room, but for other sites it might be more difficult. The hotel could probably tell you the cost of the room or most hotels will post the room rate inside the room. I would prefer to check with the hotel on what the room charge was because it is likely that the online site is not paying full retail for your room.

The win and loss should be matched to the time when the entire process is complete. Nothing is complete until you are out of the tournament.
