fpp store confusion...

$650 bonus for 55k points, that's $0.013/point, plus you have to actually play hands to clear it.
$530 ticket for 33k points, flip the $T for %99.5 which is $0.016/point.

Am I missing something or is flipping tickets much more worth it??

I guess the value of playing hands while clearing could factor in too, but you're playing anyways right?

1. Bonus is 50k points right?
2. You can't sell tickets for T$, you get a ticket and must use it to play in the event. If you use fpps for a satellite and WIN a seat you can unregister and sell the T$, but if you buy a ticket, you get a ticket, and if you unregister you get that ticket back in your account. As far as I know you can't buy/sell tickets like that.

yeah sorry, 50k points instead. Still 0.013/point

Really, you can't unregister? It's not the same as winning a ticket via satellite?

I guess that would explain everything. Didn't know about that rule though.

You can unregister, but it assigns a ticket to your account, not T$. Sort of like the steps, where you had a ticket and had to play in one of the steps, you couldn't exchange it for T$ or sell it.
