This will be an open $15.50 satellite to the main event of the WCOAP.  Betfair Poker will be adding 5 seats to the main event (worth $155 each) to this satellite.

Is this the only sat.. ???

Will be be running the normal one ??? (esp rebuy  ;D  0

It kinda clashes with the League - hey I can multi table

Also the fastest finger is in the middle of the league - so I could still be in the sat and if I buy in at 9pm and win a seat what happens does it put me in twice or does it stick me in a seperate holding tank, so many questions LOL

Further satellites info may be announced.  The direct buyin and satellites go into separate holding tanks, so if you play the satellite, direct buyin, then win a seat, you can just unreg from the direct buyin.  Or vice versa, or any combination etc.

Got a message in with Betfair on this one.  The freeroll should be on the Saturday night, with the Satellite on the Sunday.  The freeroll will effectively pay the top 20 players $77.50 into their accounts, so they can direct buyin their choice of side event on the Sunday night. (No guaranteed seats, but Betfair are giving you the cash to buyin)

Will confirm if that changes.
