To play satellite tournaments you have to be very patient, in pokerstars for example, there are satellite tournaments for large games but you have to play up to 5 satellite tournaments to get to the main event, there are other satellite tournaments that cost only a small sum of money and give you Tickets to bigger tournaments, I think these are good to play because if you get to the big tournament and lose, then nothing happens since you only invested a little, on the other hand if you win, you feel satisfied knowing that with little, you could achieve a lot .
