Poker Tournament Dollars (T$) - PokerStars Exclusive

As the world's largest online poker site, PokerStars is proud to offer a unique Tournament Dollar system. When you qualify to any event through a satellite (excluding the W$ events discussed below), you have the option to unregister from the target event and receive Tournament Dollars (T$). T$ can be used to register in any PokerStars tournament or combination of tournaments, including Sit & Gos, special events, and satellites. If you win multiple seats to the same target event, the value of these seats will be automatically credited to your T$ account. T$ differ from real money, because they cannot be used in ring games - only for buying into tournaments.

To check your T$ balance at anytime, please visit the cashier window through the lobby.

W Dollars (W$)

In addition to Tournament Dollars, we also offer special W$. W$ can be used to register into any qualifying special PokerStars event.

Special poker events include:

• PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA)
• European Poker Tour (EPT)
• Latin American Poker Tour (LAPT)
• Spring Championship of Online Poker – All Stakes (SCOOP)
• PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP)
• World Series of Poker (*WSOP)

When you win a seat in one of the W$ special events, for example a seat in the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure event in the Bahamas, you will be required to play the event and will not be allowed to unregister. If you win multiple seats in the same event, the value of these seats will be automatically credited to your W$ account. If you win a seat to a satellite for a W$ special event, you have the option to unregister from the satellite and receive W$. W$ can be used to register in any W$ special event.

To check your W$ balance at anytime, please visit the cashier window through the lobby.
