    Given the fact that qualifying via PPP means if you DID go on to win the event we would double your winnings..... I would have to ask.. WHY?? You mad man! But then if that was your objective and you achieved it. Of course you did the right thing.
    BTW we would not permit you to sell the ticket had you won if it makes you feel better ;0) T's & C's n all.

    You can't sell a seat you win online. However I don't see the point of entering a satellite for an event that you do not want to play :confused:

    David - I was watching that night and I have to say it was hillarious. You were trying to lose and the other guy didn't know what was going on. However you have passed up the chance to win Half a million Euro approx. Plus a great weekend playing poker and about $800 expenses. All for three dollars.

    You came out of it happy so don't worry aboout it.

    But I think most people on this site will think you're nuts :D

    I think i've just aged 10 years reading this.
    one day, not far from now, u'll wake up screaming 'what have i done!'.
    but congrats on 2nd place anyway, it's always nice to win a few quid.
    better than i've done in too long.

    Cant believe you didnt want to win it mate as thats the goal of taking part in any competition. Personally could do with the cash so i see your point but I couldnt let someone win just cause the cash would be nice. The chance to play in the tourney for so little with expensse, the crack, the expierence etc would be to much for me to ignore plus I hate finishing second.

    Congrats............

    I'm afraid I don't David... All I know is that he was an American. However PPP might be able to help you with that one - or it might still be in your hand history.
