I looked at the lobby, and almost all sats to all tourneys are turbos (and rebuys). Even to normal speed target tournaments. The only "normal" sat is the $2.20 to the Sunday Storm. There are a few other exceptions, but why are amost all satellites on pokerstars turbos ? :confused:

Cause they want them in and out of the lobby as soon as possible - and they want people to have time to enter as many as possible.

I think.

Yeah maybe thats the reason. I want to play these because of low variance, but beeing turbos increases the variance again, i hate all the turbo rebuy crap shoots..i think 1 seat per 5-8 people is good, higher is too much variance again.

A satellite with regular blinds sounds pretty painful tbh, infinite bubble

But a lot of the target tourneys have such "painful" structures :)
(normal speed, 2 hours late reg)

Yah, I don't like the satties on Stars much at all.
I miss the ones they used to have on FTP (1 in 4, 1 in 6, with not too fast of structure).
