Direct Buy-in and Satellites...

If I buy in directly to the Grand Final and then manage to satellite in, am I automatically refunded the £330, or am I not able to do this as the software would recognise that my name is already on the list anyway, therefore the seat I have won is technically voided?

The reason I ask is because I want to make sure my name is down, in case it is capped before I have entered.

    "Yes, the player would be refunded the money if they satellite into the Grand Final after having bought in. They will receive the price of the ticket (£330)."

    cant find the tourney lobby in the poker lobby has it been taken down as so close to the date, is there still space to buy direct in on Saturday or is it alternates already?

    Does anyone know ROUGHLY what sort of time the main event will finish on Sunday? 
    I need to know if I'll be home in time for work on Monday morning in Scotland (in the unlikely event I reach the end of the tournie!) 
    Thanks in advance

    You can buy in at the club on the day, or online via the DTD Shop on their site today

    Either is fine
