A quote in question.

"If you are good enough to qualify for the tournament through a satellite, then you are good enough to play in the tournament."

does this hold true?

I have been doing the 6 dollar satellite frenzies on FTP (starts with 30 $26 tokens guaranteed, goes up as people sign up for the event), and so far i am 2 for 2 in getting the tokens, and i was wondering how well i'd do in 1 of the tournaments.

Not neceserely I think. But if you made it thoruhg the sattelites you know how to be patient and how to play a tournament. Most qualifiers are looser than the real tournament (depends on buyin)

That would depend on what cards you got, what cards your opponents got, how you played them, how they played them, and many other factors.

Even if your one of the best players online its gives you no automatic right or guarentee to win a $26 tournament or indeed even cash in one. That said, the play in them is nothing special in fact the field is usually very soft. Dont be aftaid to give one of them a shot.

You showed you are capable of playing at a level better than how ever many were in that first round sat. Now you will be playing a satellite full of others who showed that same capability. So expect stiffer competition.
