"Upon checking, the Quick Eleven Satellite [All-In], 3 Seats Guaranteed (6163abe16111ae060efec0c2) is configured to auto-register the winners to the target tournament which is the Bounty Series 4-L SC 5,000 Guaranteed [Bounty].
We suggest checking the tournament description from the main lobby before registering in any satellites games."
I did check the description to include the satellite TITLE (QUICK ELEVEN) - but in any event I have closed it and will have to see tonight exactly what it says in the description. I don't want any reimbursement - I played the late reg tourney and bounced pretty quick - but if nothing else the satellite name should be changed.
Yeah, sometimes the target tourney has already started, or does not match the title. It is not often, but you have to check carefully before entry in the satellite. Global should definitely check on the algorithm that generates the satellites, imho.
