Do Satellite Tickets Earn FPP?

Just a simple question for my bookkeeping.

If I play a $2.20 satellite to the Sunday $100k at poker stars and win, I get a seat at the $11 game. I know I earn 1 FPP when I play the satellite, but when I play the Sunday $100k, do I then get the 5 FPP that I would have earned had I bought into the game normally? How about if I unregister and spend the T$11 on a $10 +$1 buy-in SNG?

I'm surprised no one responded, but I found out on my own.

I can confirm that fees paid through T$ on Poker Stars do not earn FPPs. I can only assume that the same would be true if you were to play the tournament for which you won the ticket.

Not a big deal, but it does make it more difficult for me to track FPP earned just through my Poker Tracker data.

I know, replying to my own thread is lame. :)

Correction: Tournament fees paid for with PS T$ do earn FPP. I was under the assumption that the FPP were given when the first hand was played, but they seem to be given after you are done with the tourney.

After taking a hard look at my stats, I realized that the Sunday $100K is a money leak for me. I don't do well at the 10-minute levels, so I'll just be taking the T$ from here on out. Still enjoy the satellites, though.
