Terms and conditions for World Poker Tour Championship:

If a player is eliminated from the Super Satellite, Prima Poker will return that player to their city of origin at the earliest convenience. Players should however be prepared to stay in Las Vegas until the completion of the Final on the 23rd April 2004. If players who were eliminated in the Super Satellite stage (or early stages of the final) wish to stay on to watch the final, they will be responsible for all charges incurred from the date that they were eliminated (apart from the return airfare which is included in the package).
At any Level, any player can buy in for cash + fee (this includes the finals on the 20th March).
Players can buy in and enter as many times as they wish, as long as tables are open. For example: A player who loses at a Satellite, can play again at the next Satellite. However:
Any individual player can only win one seat at the World Poker Tour Championship. Therefore, once a player has won a seat at the World Poker Tour Championship Final he/she can no longer participate in the satellites.

No cash awards will be made from Satellite game seat wins to the next level. All prizes are entries to the final, which pays the guaranteed package to each of the winners. The only possible way for a player to be paid a cash award is if there are insufficient entries in a satellite to cover the cost of additional seats to the Final. This rule applies to all levels of the tournament.
