Message: [QUOTE="ChrisFoxWallace, post: 6726486, member: 474011"] I think satellites can be great, but they have to have a reasonable rake, which is rare, and they have to be a satellite to a tournament you are already going to play even if you don't win your way in. Think about a $12 satellite into a $100 tournament where 1 in 10 people gets paid. If 1 in 10 people also make the money in the tournament, then that would be a 1% chance of cashing. You would need a much bigger bankroll to play a $10 satellite, than a $10 tournament, because the variance is much higher when you have to win twice. Even if you are a great player and will cash 20% of the time in each, you still only cash 4% of the time if you have to do it twice. [/QUOTE]
