Do these $1 Sat give access to the $11 one or to the main event? This can seem a ridiculous question, wanting to enter a $215 buy-in tourney just by paying $1, but if it gives only one or a couple of tickets and is open to 10,000 players, I think it’s already paying a lot of the prizes from the main event… GL for everyone trying!

It is certainly possible to enter a 215 dollar tournament by paying 1 dollar and through sattelite. I've once successfully entered the same 215 sunday tournament by only using FPP's to qualify. (Something like 100 FPP's spended). Unfortunately, I was far too agressive this tournament and got unlucky (what I remember of it) and didn't get to the money stage. Was the highest buy-in I ever played.

The Big Sunday Million in a coupe of weeks is a cool $7 million so any old but in will make it worth a punt. Dunno about $215 though but a sattellite or other options avaibale on Pokerstars, including some freerolls and liitle buy ins makes it worth a shot.

Inform us with the results.
I could have entered the software and tried to answer the question myself, but thanks very much for answering me rafiko1, I am much happier now thinking I can get the chance to enter the big one by only spending $1, or even less, since I also have some FPPs on my wallet. I only have to go take a look to see if anyone is played at a time that suits my schedule, hope it does. This sure seems a good way to spend FPP, rather than dreaming with that gold watch or the sports car …

Yep, there are also other ways to spend them like the Pokerstars Carribean Adventure sattelites each year. If you win around 9 consecutive tournaments (every time 1/3 from players pool) u get a full package Other wise you accumulate and accumulate points and only at your sixties (minimum) you can get that Porsche Cayenne from PS.
