Money instead of ticket

When I play these satellites, I play them to get the ticket, I don`t care about the very small prices you can get at the positions just before the tickets! It is useless!:fight:

Chris Moneymaker considered it for an $8000 fourth place in his satellite to the WSOP :laugh:

Yeah I have in Unibet Open step satellites. It's the only way to get the money to actual use unless you 100% sure you want to try to win multiple steps all the way into that 2000€ package.

Right now they dont even offer this 2k package ...
Maybe from next year they will do it again if they restart with live events ...

I have done this several times. Another conversation is that this is not always the case.
The most memorable event I had was the last stage (I don't remember the 3rd or 4th stage) for a $ 215 (possibly more expensive) buy-in tournament. And I tried to get knocked out fourth and get the money, but I went further and in the main tournament I was left without ITM, knocking out on the bubble.

Those who have invested little in the step-by-step stage of the game on tickets and, they value money very much and, he managed to reach a high price for a ticket, but there is a choice either an expensive ticket or money, but at a cost less than a ticket, it is better to take money. After all, you are not sure that you will be lucky and you will again get into the prizes. I would do it like that.
 
I prefer to fight to the bitter end, the ticket is the best option for me !!!
 
If I can recall correctly there was a step 3 or step 4 in ACR the Venom tournament?!The ticket was the next step but the monetary prize was very tempting compared to my bankroll. It is risky but if you have zero interest to play the target tournament or if it is full of professionals?I don't know.

I didn't even try to take the cash instead of the ticket but I would be OK with that, I proceed to the next step but unfortunately I didn't make it further.
 
Hi everyone.Well, I played some of those games on Party Poker.I had a free $5 ticket to play the next step to qualify for a live event.I did prefer the money because it was a good cash(almost $30) and the ticket was about $44, and also because I had no time to play the next step .That was the one I remember the most but I won more money using my free tickets.

Has anyone purposely went out on the bubble to get the money in a ticket tournament?

Probably it all depends on how big the prize money is. But I never did that.
 
No, that kind of play is garbage. You should always play to win, or at least cash. Why join a satellite if you aren't trying to win? Makes no sense at all
 
money is always better than the ticket. but if it is a welcome gift, I will always play.
 
Hi, usually, yes, I try to get cash and not a ticket, because if I get a ticket I will have to play hard again and hope for good luck, and if there is an opportunity to take the money right away why not.
 
Had ticket today to some 25€ satellite ... reached FT so tried to finish on that place which gave 23€ - sadly this plan failed cause i won this satellite lol ...
