Satellite Qualifiers
The best way for you to earn a bunch of seats into this event will be through the qualifiers. They’ll be running tons of 1 seat qualifiers each and every day for the next 6 weeks at nearly every buy-in level. All of these satellites can be found in the FD lobby.
- $1 Satellites – 280 Entrants – 1 Seat Awarded
- $2 Satellites – 140 Entrants – 1 Seat Awarded
- $5 Satellites – 56 Entrants – 1 Seat Awarded
- $10 Satellites – 28 Entrants – 1 Seat Awarded
- $25 Satellites – 11 Entrants – 1 Seat Awarded
There is a very good possibility that someone is able to turn $1 into over $150K! That’s absolutely incredible and the daily satellites provide both high stakes and low stakes Grinders ample opportunities to win seats into the main event.
While the DFBC qualifiers may be over, FanDuel has once again rolled out a massive tournament for you to win or buy your way into. Be sure to get over to FD as soon as possible and start working to earn your seats. We’d love to crown a Grinders member as King of the Diamond!
