  4. What is Second Qualification for Finals Worth?

    Finishing in the top nine in a qualifier gets you into the finals without having to pay the $300 entry fee. Since a finals entry gets you rebuy privileges, I am wondering what the value of finishing in the top nine in a second qualifier might be. Is it of no extra value? Does it get you a free finals rebuy? Or does nine.com give you something else instead of the nominal $300 finals entry fee? Does anybody know for sure?

    Prize structure

    Here is what you are playing for beyond the entry into the final. First thru third is instant cash available for withdrawal. "Casino Comp" has wagering requirements (9X comes to mind, but I may be wrong about that).
