winning WSOP seats on multiple sites
 
So I won my WSOP main event seat on stars last week, but would still like to play the ftp sat's. Anyone know what ftp will do if I win a seat there but have already won one on stars? I know that ftp normally gives cash if you win a 2nd seat on there but my first one was won on stars.

If you tell FTP you already have a seat they will give you the cash.

Well................ sort of. I would definitely recommend contacting them about this FIRST.

Last year, I won my seat on UB early and contacted a few sites about the situation. Stars told me not to play there (I would forfeit the second seat if I won another one there), and Full Tilt was back and forth on the issue for a while. First, they agreed to my request give me $10k in WSOP money (to use in other events), and I think EVENTUALLY they said that proof of winning a seat on another site would be good enough to get them to give you cash instead of a seat through FT (and you lose the added $10 million contract thing, of course). I assume they are still doing that this year, but double check.

If you can't find the answer in a FAQ on their site, just shoot them an email. Their support isn't as fast as Stars', but it's still pretty good.

BTW - Welcome to the forum and congrats on winning the seat.

Yeah, they need proof, but they will give you the cash.
