I have a question about PS sattelite SnG's. I played in one of the two table $36 SnG sattelites yesterday. The winner gets $530 buy-in for the big Sunday tournament, second place gets $25 and third gets nothing. (I bubbled out in 3rd) I have heard that you are not required to use the $530 to buy into the big tournament...you cannot cash it out, but you can use it to buy into smaller tourneys and SnG's. I figured this would be a good way to fund experience in MTT's instead of a 1 time crap shoot in the big one. $530 buys into a lot of $10-20 weekday MTT's where I could build my MTT experience before trying the "big one" Does anyone know if this is true?

Yes it is true.

You have 2 choices for payment.
Entry into the big toureny, or you can take it in the form of "T$"
Tournament Dollars.

You can not cash out tourney dollars, they must be used to entry into tournaments only.
But they can be transfered.. So you could trade someone T$ for Regular $.
