PokerStars FPP's -What should I do with them?

When you do the satellite thing, if you win your way into the tourney can you then unregister and use the tournament bucks for SnGs?

Yes. I've done it before.

I think he's asking about if you win a seat to the main-event.

If you win a seat to Barcelona (or London or Baden or wherever) they will not let you exchange it for tourney-bucks.
At least that's what it says on their site...I guess they might consider making exceptions but I wouldn't count on it.


There are more EPT tourneys coming up to use your FPP's on.
There will also be the Caribbean Cruise tourney in January and the WSOP that you can try to qualify for.

but they are also running plenty of 400fpp and 1000fpp rebuy turbo's where you CAN unregister from the tourney and keep the tourney-dollars.
If you are not interested in trying to win a bigger trip to a major tourney then clearly the best option is the 400fpp and 1000fpp re-buy satellites for tourney-dollars.

I should note that any of the satellites under the "Events" tab will give you W$ if you unregister. W$ can only be used to enter other tournaments under the "Events" tab.

Therefore, the best FPP events are the satellites to the big Sunday guaranteed games. You can unregister and take the T$ instead, if you wish. T$ can be used in any tournament, and if I were playing on the site I imagine I'd be playing a lot of SNG....

A lot of the big players play the SNG satellites, with 1500 fpp buyins and one seat for the tournament.
