Can I cash in my Party Steps freeroll ?

[SoothSabre]

I'm at Mini-Step 5 on Party and am wondering if there is a way to cash this out. I tried registering and unregistering but it just returns my freeroll. It's $430 and I would rather take the money than risk it. Any help appreciated.

if you could just cash them out for money, dont you think everybody would be doing that?

there is no possible way to convert them into money, that is the entire [censored] point of the steps tourneys, otherwise they would just be sit and gos with really [censored] weird payouts.

Dude, lose the attitude. Why is it so hard to post a question on here without getting flamed?

To answer your expletive infested question, no, I don't think "everybody would be doing that."

I don't personally play the mini-Steps anymore (due to lack of time) but I'm actually glad Party doesn't give a cashout option. Less players would play higher levels & longer to actually even have a game going especially at Step 5, I'd imagine?

It is the same parallel as getting a qualifier seat to a larger satellite but not able to cash out (i.e. Super Qualifier, Saturday qualifer, Sunday qualifer, 750K qualifier). It goes to your list of freerolls for future use. Of course, if an "event" expires, I don't know if Party gives out the cash equivalent or says "too bad".

Though, I have been reading about Stars's T$ "Tournament Dollars" as I didn't pay attention to it in the past. I realized this is one GREAT way to balance out the decision to "cash out from tournament qualifiers or SNG qualifiers" or to play out the expected tourney.

Of course, for Party Steps, it is an unique format & I think it's best to just play out your free entry(ies). Who knows, maybe you'll get into top 5 for any cash back, and since you have worked your way up, perhaps it means you can also reach the nice top 3 prizes for much lower risks (as in not plopping down $430 to begin with for a flat payout to top 5)?

Good luck,

Obviously your intelligence is just too superior. Since I'm so privileged to be in the presence of such a genius, I have some other questions for you...

Should I go pro ?

Is online poker rigged ?

Why do sad lonely people think they'll feel better by flaming on message boards ?

OP is right.

Elliott, it would be nice if people were a little more civil to each other. Just because it's a stupid question to you doesn't mean other people aren't wondering about it.

If you don't have anything nice to say, just don't bother.

Dude mini step 5 is horrible as is step 5, expect nine players still there with 200-400 blinds.
