They are satellite entries to a satellite to a tourney....!
I have about 10 of them comin' out my A$$...but never get around much to using them...!
I much prefer winning the Monthly Freeroll tickets if lucky enough.... They are for a bi-weekly freeroll for $500 which is fairly easy to get into the money in... I've won a little money in those...!

yeah i have a bunch of these as well, but never played a single tourney- wanted but always forgot when they start or had other stuff to take care of. but i checked what they are all about and you basically get a chance to win a $3.30 ticket (which you can obviously convert to T money)- still it's a freebuy tourney if i recall it right, which means a lot lower chances of winning if you don't invest anything extra.

Msot of these tournaments are rebuy ones, and you can't use another ticket to rebuy your way back to the tournament, so your chances of winning something if you don't want to put in cash are relatively low. That is the reason I don't use mine.

I am also having a lot of these School pass tickets, but to be honest they are pretty worthless. I have played about 20 tournaments just before christmas before they expired. I qualified for some tournaments, but in the end it is not worth the time you put in.
School Pass events only good if you are bored out of your life, otherwise it's just a way Jokerstars promotes their Powker School. Doesn't mean much, doesn't give you much (9 times a 3.30 ticket for more than 1.5-2k playerpool is a bad time-investment for anybody who isn't live his life in front of a computer) and despite School is in the name of the tourey I really think you would be better off elsewhere learning.
