If I play in a qualifier at FT can I cash the winnings or do I have to play in the event?
Same question for qualifiers that pays the satellite tokens?

Thanks

You can usually unregister from the tournament that you won the satellite for. Whether they give you the actual dollar amount or tournament dollars is another story.

I'm 99.9% positive that they will always give you tournament dollars. But TD aren't that bad...I play in tournaments all the time anyways, so they end up being exactly the same in the end.

and you can always convert the TD into real cash with a 5% difference from the cashier menu

If you win a satellite that you've bought in to, say for the double deuce, you can unregister and take the cash in the form of tournament dollars. This is just site currency which you can use the same as real money for anything EXCEPT ring games. You can transfer them for cash if you pay a 5% fee, but thats a waste of time and money unless you are withdrawing.
If you enter a satellite with Full Tilt Points and win, you can unregister, but only for Full Tilt Points. If the tourney buy in is $100, you wont get it, they credit you with 40,000 points instead (roughly).

So if I win a satellite into a 1$T buy-in tournament, I can unregister and get 95 cents US dollars back? I'm just wondering, since some tournaments are during my midnight :)

If you enter a game with $1t, and unregister, you'll get the $1t back. You have the option to transfer it to real money ($0.95), but why would you do that? Its a waste of 5% of your cash, just play a $1 Sit n Go when your next online.
