Winners!! ----------------------------------- Post to enter time again Crushers :) *Revised Prize Structure* Always Presented by BowerCrush _______________________________ TOURNAMENT VARIANTS PART 3 Satellite Tournaments Instead of offering a cash prize, a satellite tournament rewards an entry into a higher buy-in tournament to its winners. Most notable are the World Series of Poker satellites. There are several different types of satellite tournaments- Generally, most require a more aggressive strategy at the beginning of the tournament and then a more selectively aggressive strategy towards the end. This is because there tends to be only a few prizes awarded relative to the number of people who buy-in. However, since first place is awarded the same prize as the person who receives the lowest winning spot, there is no reason to be overly aggressive in accumulating vast amounts of chips. Satellite Tournaments are sometimes overlooked by less experienced players, which is really too bad. Perhaps the road MOST traveled is just that because it takes less time and makes the most sense.

I'm lured to cash payouts most of the time. Dont mind playing them, but seem to mostly play satellite "freerolls". Of course, anything WSOP would get my attention for sure !!! ----------------------------------- crzynana2001 04.04.2012, 14:58 ----------------------------------- I enjoy the satellite freerolls at intertops poker for the buy ins to the money games. ----------------------------------- transam99 05.04.2012, 21:23 ----------------------------------- I like playing satellites because you don't have to set your sights too high just to make the cut into the next round ----------------------------------- shirlsplay 05.04.2012, 23:43 ----------------------------------- I never knew what satellites meant , thanks !!!

It give me a chance to get into the bigger tournies that I could never afford to get into otherwise. I am not a huge depositor so I usually play the cheaper tournies. I love having the chance to play in some of the big ones. ----------------------------------- win4maw 15.04.2012, 03:38 ----------------------------------- Since I don't play any tournaments exscept PC's I guess I don't play sat ones LOL ----------------------------------- kaykyl 15.04.2012, 19:09 ----------------------------------- Im not a big spender when it comes to poker for that reason i like the satalite tournies, it gives you a chance to get into the bigger ones. ----------------------------------- cocakolakid 16.04.2012, 11:46 ----------------------------------- I'll play an occasional satallite tourney - however I prefer sit-n-go's over them. ----------------------------------- anneandalan 24.04.2012, 16:41 ----------------------------------- I play satelites and sit n gos - lately the way I have been playing it doesn't seem to matter - I lose equally well in both! LOL ----------------------------------- gjr1961 30.04.2012, 12:02 ----------------------------------- I have only tried sit n go.
