Sit out, & increase your chances of winning?

No idea if this is true, but it struck me as interesting on all sort of levels.

It gets better...just received this e mail

Hello FUN4FRASER,

We are writing to you because you have previously used funds from your PokerStars account to directly buy-in to live events sponsored by PokerStars. We are sending a similar message to all players with PokerStars accounts operating under our .BE/.BG/./.EE & .UK licensed operations.

Unfortunately, we are not able to offer this service going forward. While we would like to be able to allow you to directly buy-in to live events using money in your PokerStars account, we are simply not permitted to offer such services going forward.

Please be aware that this will only affect you when you are trying to directly buy-in to live events using funds from your PokerStars account. This has no impact on players who win satellite entries to live events or players who buy-in using funds that are from outside of their PokerStars accounts.

Consequently, please be aware that you are going to need to use alternative mechanisms to buy-in to live events.

We regret that we are not going to be able to offer this service. Please feel free to contact our Registrations Team at registrations@pslive.com if you have any queries.

Regards,
PokerStars Live Events Team

By making you cash out and then buy in direct you are having to use Stars new " higher exchange rate"   

Seriously what are they thinking  ?

As far as I am aware, Fraser, they have no choice in this matter, it is connected to the requirements of their UK Licence.

Just seems strange that satellites are okay

if that is the case they could play "two man sit n gos" for the tournament buy in amount  with two seats avaliable to "the winners"

Hell hath no fury like a poker player scorned

Or even better, the "proper" version.....

Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a poker player scorned
