    I have heard a couple of times that UB is now offering tourney dollars like stars but I cannot find any information on it listed on the main page or the website. Any help on this would be appreciated.

    Shawn Rice and Annie Duke have hinted at it on P5s, but I haven't heard anything official, and it sounds like its still a few months away. Seems like UB is dealing with its interface and adding new games these days, so I wouldn't be surprised if we have to wait a while for T$.

    How would this differ from their TEC's ?

    Now I've heard other people say it was already started. Someone had won an entry into the Sunday $200 and she was trying to win another stating she would get tourney dollars for it.

    Scout,
    I won (2) $215 feeders on Sunday. I played both feeds at 2:30 pm, and am awaiting UB's email to see if they are going to give me TEC's, an entry to next week, or tourney dollars.
    I will post again when I hear from them, but it has almost been 24 hrs.
    As you know UB support team is pretty slow.

    You get nothing.

    They explicitly state in the rules of each tournament that the entries are non-refundable and non-transferrable. They say if you have already won a seat DON'T play another one. Playing two at once is something you do at your own risk (my buddy once won two at once and he got nothing in return, although he did win the Sunday $200 that week!)

    Craftman this was in rules before but I am hearing that they are now giving tourney dollars or TECs. Someone stated they were and someone else saw it on the main page although I failed to see it. So maybe it has been changed and I am not aware. I'm looking for someone to verify this.

    It says on the UB mainpage that if you win a 2nd entry to the WSOP or the "1$million guaranteed tournament" then you can get TECs.

    so this does not apply to the sunday 500 or 200

    it says in each satelite feeder, under details, that a 2nd seat is non refundable and non transferable

    Scout,

    Yes, UB emailed me back telling me I would get 2 TEC +15 for the second entry won

    ***EDIT*** I was told you must email UB with tourney info to get the TEC's until they get everything automated....

    Thanks for the responses all. I appreciate it. Now I am still wondering if any has heard anything about tourney dollars or is that not happening anytime soon?
