EPT online sats?

[BryanSPokerStars]

Hi shaundeeb,

They are indeed $215 tournaments with cash pay tables, etc... - with an added bonus: the winner of each wins a package to the EPT Season 4 event for which the tournament is named. (ex. winner of EPT Online - Dublin goes to EPT Dublin, etc.) This is also true for the $1,050 EPT Online Monte Carlo event - the winner goes to EPT Monte Carlo to play for a huge stack of cash.

All the best,

I don't know what you are saying about the DSOs.

They are having sats for these.Which was my original question.
You can find these underneath the EPT tab

Thanks a lot bryan, while I got you here what happened to the $55 54 man 6 max tourneys? I loved them and I know others did too and they ran a bit but were still fresh.

All the sats award a "ticket" to an EPT online $215 MTT (except MC Online which has its own feeders). You can use a ticket for <u>any</u> of the EPT online events. There are many different kinds of satellites, $6.50 DSO, $22 Freezeout, $8 rebuy (MC is $33r, $33 DSO and $88 freezeout). Hope this helps.

So these tickets are a must play! Unlike other sats.If I win a seat I must play specifically in any one of the EPT online events? For instance could I not use them to play wsop qualifiers?

Hiya Shaundeeb,

From time to time we evaluate the popularity of various sit and go tournaments and alter the offerings accordingly. We took a look at the one you mentioned, and it very rarely played - while we had many requests for other types we'd not tried yet.... thus it made way for some other S&amp;G.

Please feel free to let us know, anytime you like, what you'd like to see. We not only listen to feedback from our players - we absolutely depend upon it.

All the best,

I think OP meant to ask - and even if he didn't, I'm asking - if you win a 'ticket' can you 'unregister' / sell your ticket for W$, or do you have to play an EPT sat with it?

[Ontario_Tory]

NM - a little reasearch and all becomes clear.

You win a ticket, which you must use in one of the 'main events'. No W$ possible.

Those main events are not EPT sats, they are cash tourneys where the 1st place person ALSO gets the EPT seat.

All clear now.

I think they didn't get much attention people often just dismiss the tourneys uptop and Im sure you've read how often people ask for more 6max tourneys etc but I don't ever recall a message to inform the avg player of the addition of that tourney. One of those people had to find it on their own to notice it. I think if you tossed it up on the messages that come up when you login. I would love if it each week they do a focus on the new tourneys they are trying so word gets to the masses.

[Ontario_Tory]

BUT.... You can use W$ to buy into these tourneys.

Awesome. Very nice, Justin...
