Awesome news just unregistered the 2.20 ticket i just won and am playing a 1.50 $ Sit & Go as we speak. Doubled up ealry and have nice lead so far. Hopefully it holds up and I can't start a new streak of solid play.
Haven't had much success if any asof late so this would be a big help if I can convert the freebies into some cash.

ull get cash if u make it in the money, don't like TD`s but for starters its ok, i only play cash for cash and occasional tournament where u can buy in with a ticket that u get through previously playing other tournament to get the ticket to buy in with but not to make short story long, yes u get cash when u buy in with TD`s

Thanks again for the quick responses guys.
Never mind just crashed and burned. I'm not sure how I keep making the same mistakes over and over. I get lots of chips early and fall apart later on. not too sure what my issue is but I can't seem to rectify my play issues when it comes to cash on the line.
I don't understand what's wrong with me sometimes.

Sorry to read it (sng bust I mean). Just be aware sngs are a problem mathematically solved by now. Just google around and you will find a lot of stuff about sng strategy: if you only get, and apply, the basic concept of it you will surely gain a positive winrate at lower stakes.
There are also some software that can be used to train yourself to play them correctly: not sure about the name but, if my memory is correct, shoould be "ICM Trainer.
Also google SAGE (sng endgame system) and have a quick read.

This is one of the wonderful wonders of pokerstars. You can refund your tickets for their value in tourney dollars and win actual money. It is an oft used process by small time players who win big tickets and convert them to tourney dollars to get more value in the long term out of them. Good luck!
