OK, so I just finished in the top 250 and have my ticket.
One question though, why the hell is 888 having these tourneys on weekdays rather than weekends?
The $100k falls on a Wednesday at 1:00 PM (PST), right in the middle of working hours.
It's hard enough to qualify for it, 888 should make it so the most people possible (who qualify) should be able to play it.
They did the same thing with the Poker Club freerolls. They used to all be on a Saturday, now the $6k is on a Friday, the $8k is on a Monday and the $10k is on a Tuesday.
Not exactly optimal days for people who work for a living.

Congrats! Can you register for the another qualifier tournament or does it not allow you to? Basically, can you get more than one ticket a week?

Thanks.
There's no point in registering for another one after you get a ticket, the tourney is on May 3 and the ticket expires in 9 days.
I think this is also a 1 off tourney (hence my mini rant about it being on a weekday), so a second ticket can't be used anyway

$100,000 Meteor Tournament will run on 03/05/17 at 20:00 GMT
So why spending time in Qualifier when we can directly ...:
Did I miss something?
I think 888 must have screwed something up there.
Right under that you can buy a Meteorite "Qualifier" ticket for 10 tokens, I suspect the ticket to the actual tourney was supposed to be 100 or 1000 tokens.
If they actually are allowing people to buy in direct for 10 tokens right now people should snap them up before 888 realizes they made a faux pas.

Hmm, I just noticed something.
Starting today the qualifiers run every 2 hours up until the tournament on May 3. With 250 people qualifying each time that works out to 29,500 qualifiers, then add in those buying in direct with tokens and it could be a LOT more than that.
Right now the tourney has a cap of 20,000 players, so it will fill up very fast when registration starts.

I was asking because if you can only get one ticket, it will be easier to qualify as days go by since there will be less entrants.
With 12 tournaments per day and 250 qualifiers for each one, you can probably just register and sit out and get a ticket if you play later in the week.

Ah, good point.
I can't help you there, I qualified with the 2nd of my 2 free tickets so I couldn't enter another qualifier tourney if I wanted to.

So why spending time in Qualifier when we can directly redeem a ticket...:

It looks like 888 still has direct entry tickets to the $100k for 10 tokens.
Seriously, that has to be a mistake, why would they have a direct entry for 10 tokens and qualifier tickets also for 10 tokens. Why would anyone buy a qualifier ticket for a chance to win a ticket when for the same price you can get a direct entry ticket?
I feel kind of annoyed I spent 40 minutes playing to win a ticket when I could have bought one on the cheap, but I suppose I did save myself 10 tokens.
Those qualifier tourneys are dying fast, the first one I played yesterday had 4800 players, the one just about to start now has 840 players with 3 minutes left to register. In a day or two there might barely be more players than tickets available as people opt to buy them directly.
It just feels like 888 kind of messed up the whole having to earn your way into playing for the big tourney and hasn't noticed their mistake in the token amounts.

I hope everyone who noticed got their direct entry ticket for 10 tokens.
I just checked and 888 has now changed the direct entry ticket to 500 tokens, and the qualifier ticket is still there at 10 tokens
So it appears somebody did mess up and it took a couple of days for them to catch it so a lot of people got their ticket at a real bargain price.
