    Checked my stars account before I left for Thanksgiving and noticed that the Steps end Nov 25 at 12:00 ET. Anyone have any idea what they will do with the tickets still not played?? I have a Step 4 & 5 still alive. Do I play them like theres no tomorrow or to try and keep the ticket alive? I would assume they would roll over into the next event, but not sure.

    I thought stars went on the record and said this wasn't the case, when the steps were originally introduced?

    why you giving out false information. we all know pokerstars is not like that, do you think they will just take your money. they are will let you save your tickets for other promotions to live events. ie. wsop or im sure they will tell us exactly soon.

    Im not giving out false information. I am relaying what stars said in an email asking this exact question. The email was posted by someone on here. Search for it

    three,

    you're wrong. They haven't decided exactly what they're doing with the tickets, but they'll be converted into something... probably tickets for steps to APPT and EPT tournaments.

    Ya I am wrong. I searched and found the email below, and although I havent found it yet, I am 100% positive that at first they said they would be forfeited

    "Hi hoboman,

    No one will lose any value they've won in a Stars satellite; we don't do things that way.

    Having said that, we haven't decided yet. I can tell you that it's unlikely that we'll simply convert them to cash. Far more likely is that we'll roll them into a promotion for another series/event on the Events tab. In this way, the tickets are like W$... you can't cash them out, but we continue giving you opportunities to use them.

    All the best,

    Bryan S."

    So is that it for stars running PCA satalites?
    Will they run SEAT ONLY satties?
