All of stars fpp items you can purchase are way overpriced including the bonus. The best way to spend your fpp's is in the single table satalites to the sunday million and just build up your T$. If you want a breakdown on how much more you can make doing it that way i'll break it down for you.

please do and also what exact tournaments to play, how many FPPs they cost, and how they work and what you win. thanks.

Ok, I will break it down. Someone else said I was referring to the 5400 satalites. I wasn't primarily reflecting to them as if you do the numbers you dont get as much money doing them but if you struggle playing heads up and winning that might be the satalite for you to play.

Ok so anyway, pokerstars will sell you a $1500 bonus for 100,000 fpps. At the end of every month pokerstars runs the 3600 fpp satalite to the $530 sunday million this is the satallite to play. Lets do the math, you have to accumulate more than $1500 before spending 100,000 fpp's to make this a profitable move over the bonus offering.

So 100,000/3600=27.7 So you can play almost 28 of these satalites with your 100k fpps.

Assuming you are able to win one in a 1/5 rate(which i think is very reasonable.
27.7/5=5.54

So you take 5.54 and multiply it by your $530 seat and you get $2934.20 Thats pretty much double the rate pokerstars is offering you in their bonus. Even if you win at a 1/6 rate the money still comes out to being $2446. So hopefully that wasnt too hard to follow. The single table satalites are the way to go.

Bball- thanks for the correction.

Duly noted.

However, the 5400's still give good value.

No kidding.
I'm not terribly knowledgeable about SNG's but this seems like such a ridiculous assumption.

Summary of the supposed 'best' value for FPP's:
Fields are soft.
Just win 1/5 for super-duper-value.
Free Moneyzzz!!!!!

I mentioned this to my GF and she wants me to ask Stars if they would pay for implants.

I'm very impressed with Stars. Maybe I'm over estimating the number of supernovas out there but this seems like a lot of work and shows a dedication to customer service.
