you should try emailing their support, they might be able to help you out as it is just a freeroll ticket, but if you do then you'll have to put in 50.

No luck....
Hey,...if you make a $10 deposit,...that'll get you into a 6 man SnG satellite where 1st place gets a ticket...
Hey Demo, i think that's why they give us the options to deposit $50 or more to get that ticket for freeroll because they know is very hard to finish on first 50 of 10.000 players and if you deposit $50 you have to play and generate some rake, they give a freeroll of $1 million and they win over than $3.000.000 only from all players who deposited for this event.

Are you sure about this doarulle? Cause i havent seen anyone saying that you have to play after the deposit. So i bet there will be quite a few players depositing only for the ticket and nothing more.

Posted by EgonOlsen: Heyyyyyyyyyy not much entrys in the Moment. if u dont make a big mistake or a fat bad beat, the Money should be safe.
------------ Hey ! U dont Need to Play after deposit ! Ist not allow , to cash out Money , before the Turnier Ends .
I also deposit 50� to get the ticket , and after the tournament i will cash it out ( with much more i hope )
Good luck with your cash-out, hope they don't ask you to generate 3x your winning of freeroll because after you win that $50.000 you'll be unable to generate $150k joke obv, hope you win some nice cash. GOOD LUCK

Just played the freeroll to get the ticket.........
79th place so no ticket and all because of some idiot wank er ( and I will not name the country he was from as there is said enough bout that )
who decided to call my all in from 2nd position with AK suited....with a 9 3..... my all in was 3/4 of his stack and for sure this piece of sh1t hit his 3 on the river.... if this would have been live poker I would have def. slapped him in his face....but why do these fools always have to be so damn lucky...
I am really dissapointed as I was so close and played it really well..... and just be4 I get the ticket this happens..... hard to deal with this kind of bad beats........
Wish all of the mobsters who will be playing the Ultimate the best of luck.....should be really easy getting ITM as there are 39 k places paid and only 40 k entrants atm..... and there only will be just a few freerolls to get a ticket. Cant imagine that there will be a lot of people still depositing for that ticket..

i have a ticket ,the problem is that my brother whant that to ....so my question is how can he deal it ??i mean if he make an deposit (10$) what code ?and how many tickets he will recive on those S&G shure there still are and will be til tomorow depositors for that ticket Wish all mobster deep stack and a sweet final table
Today I took the $50 deposit route to get this ticket; that is, I didn't really deposit, but moved some funds from full tilt to pokerstars.
You can't use the transfer option using the linked account, because these are not eligible for bonuses. Instead I withdrew $60 from full tilt to skrill, and then deposited to pokerstars, with the "ULTIMATE" bonus code. It just took about a minute in total.
One thing is that my skrill is in EUR currency (my mistake), so there were 2 conversions USD => EUR and back EUR => USD. Luckily both fullt tilt as well as pokerstars are relatively cheap with currency conversions, as I ended up with $59.71 (less than 0.5%).
If I had let Skrill do the conversions; it would have cost me 2.95% twice (almost $3.50)...

Egon the plan is to do the same actually but if you get aces in the first hand i guess you'll need to fold them? I mean more than sure a russian with 39 outsuited will call and it will get two pairs
You are right, with a bit of moderation everyone should be at least ITM

i wonder what happens in a situation where a late registration is still possible, but there is already less people than paid places left in the tourney...how would those players who are already out should be treated- are they in the money or are they small cocked morons? a couple of hours ago there were ~40K entrants with ~35K places paid...i imagine stars are sweating on turning on the bots army

yea with 60 min late reg, then everybody that reg late will be in the money , unless pokerstars has it set up to close reg once the money is hit. we will just have to wait and see what happens.
