Satellite qualifiers

On Thursday qualifying satellites for Championship and Intermediate can be played. Traditionally lots of people participate in these satelites. In 2005 a player won one of these satellites and continued to win Nordic Open.

 

Stoppots or WBGT stoppots

In these you can freely dicide at what level you want to enter, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320.... When two players are ready on the same level the match will start. In the normal stoppots you can play as many matches as you want - you can even play one match and the cash out. At the WBGT stoppots you must play on until you win a seat or you are out - how ever you can enter these at any level.
