Just read this in the Poker Player Mag...nice one.

Will we be required to de-reg if we have already paid for a day 1a or 1b, as per other Betfair Satellites?

As far as I am aware, no you won"t.  Betfair will manually enter the succesful players into the events.  If you already have a seat in the holding tank, then Betfair will let you know whether you can just unregister or if they will do that for you and credit your account.

These tournaments won"t be linked to the holding tanks, so you WILL NOT need to unregister from a holding tank to be able to play them.

It"s a Betfair promo, so I"d register for the satellite, then see how many cards you get.
