I won a 5$ wcoop spin and go for a 15$ satalite ticket then won that for a 75$ sat ticket. Is it possible to cash in the 75$ ticket instead of playing the tort? Most the 75$ games are only 1 530$ ticket if u beat out a field of 8 players and prefer to keep the cash lol and to be honest if i knew i was playing for sat tickets i wouldnt of played to begin with
------------ Id stay away from the wcoop 5$ spin and gos if u have a life/work schedule. I jist searched through all the 75$ satalites and if i happend to win a 530$ ticket it automatically registers you to that 530$ satalite and you cannot unregister lol..load of crap imo i thought i was playing for a chance to win game tickets not satalite tickets for games id havta schedule my life around to play for the chance to win another satalite ticket
------------ So i talked to stars and there no exchanble...after calling them a few select words ive found some progressive jackpot satalites that u win minimum 7.50 per knockout so i guess ill be playing that tourney like a 75$ freeroll and just hunting bounties because the 530$ sat tickets pretty useless to me. I wouldnt recommend playin the wcoop 5$ spins if u dont wanna play and win a bunch of satalites to finally have a chance to play for real money.... ( told stars id be letting ppl know these games are garbage) so thats what ill do lol...assholes

You have to play in my opinion. Try to retire from the tournament and you'll see. Full tilt in the past sometimes had an option to retire from the tournament, but you do not get dollars in your account. I think they were called FTP. Pokerstars do not allow what you want i think, because i try twice with 2 other satelittes and they refused.

Yeah im gonna play a progressive knockout satalite so atleast i get a chance to win bounties. I just think its pretty dumb to run spin and goes for satalite tickets. I thought when buying in id be playing for actual wcoop tickets. Donno how many satalites i have to play to actually make it to final event but its prob 5-8 games id have to win. Feels like a shootout and i dont like the odds lol. Anywho only 5$ just pisses me off that pokerstars isnt transparent with what prizes your actually playing for

It would have been nice if you could trade the ticket or cash. Now you are forced to play with it. But you never know what can happen. You may end up getting a decent pay out from the tournament itself, if you manage to knockout a few players Good luck with it.

Not good situation to you i think, i remember some time later when i plau on pokerstars i too have such problem, i play some satellites and win tickets, but then i see that two bad things to me- i have to play on middle of night in my time and again tournament to win anotjer tickets, not money.

well all us believe in you and that you can win something with this ticket!its ok if you want to have cash instead of this ticket and you have right to ask somebody for exchange,but would be better to win some bigger amount from this!whatever you decide,good luck!
