If you get the $285 bonus then your Points are worth about $.11 each. If you try to parlay your points into tournament tickets and sell the tickets, the points are worth about $.15. My favorite thing to do right now is play the 5400 FPP 10-man turbos where the top 4 get a ticket. If you play 4 of these tournaments your chance of coming away empty handed is less than 9%

Wait you can purchase tourney tickets and sell them!? This way I don't have to play the necessary additional 5000 or whatever FPP's right?

No, if you purchase the tournament ticket straight up, you aren't allowed to sell them... unregistering for the tournament will simply return the points to your account. The only way to get tickets you can sell is to take a risk and try to win them in a satellite.

No. You can purchase tourney tickets, but you don't get $T if you unregister from the tournament you bought into. What you can do is use FFP's to enter satellites. If you win the satellite, you can then unregister from the tournament and get the $T.

Are you asking where to find the Sunday Million FPP satellites? They are under Sit&Go:Satellite:FPP

I'd wait till after the end-of-month $530 SM unless you are a real baller and have a [censored] ton of points.
