I enjoy the the satellites. Less risk and greater reward. I tend to play a little more relaxed knowing the discount I got being in the tournament. Of course, that's if you were succesful obtaining the ticket.

I prefer to play satellites because I save my bankroll and I guarantee my entrance to a tournament I usually like to play satellites for tournaments from 11 $ 22 $ to 109 $ and 90% of the time I earn the tiqietes with only a few exchanges

Satellites is a very good opportunity to participate in a tournament with a large prize pool, for a few dollars. For example, consider the famous tournament at pokerstars SundayMillion. There are several types of satellites for this tournament:
- Satellites with double shootout;
- Satellites in Hyper-Turbo format SNG;
- Tournaments with rebuy;
- Standard multi-table tournaments.
Choose any satellite that suits you and win a ticket to a tournament with a buy-in of $ 215, just for a few dollars or a few tens of dollars.
Personally, I prefer satellites, because I do not like to pay hundreds of dollars for a buy-in, it's much nicer to go to tournaments for a few dollars.

I prefer to play without risking anything, and good luck ever will come.

I prefer buy-in 50ç or 1,10 to play MTT but some satelites are interesting such as sunday storm 225k satelite is 5 stars coins the buy in; or sometimes there are satelites of 33ç on PS that give us the chance to fight for big quantities of money.

The nice part about sattys is the play is usually not as good and most people dont understand the unique icm dynamics.

satelites are good because of ROI, but depends a lot of bankroll. if u have a low bankroll dont play satelites for highstakes, play for small stakes tournaments and so on.

It is better to play satellites when you have star coins
When you play a satellite for money i think that if you are a good player and think that most of the time you win a satellite it is better than buy in
For beginners is better to buy in

I prefer fast and risky satellites such as 2x shootout for example. But if it cannot be passed for two times, i will pay buy-in

It depends on your bankroll. For example, if you have $ 50, it's okay for you to play directly in tournaments of $ 1 or less, but if you're interested in entering a $ 5 tournament, I'd rather get into a $ 1 or $ 0.50 satellite.

Interesting to hear Doyle Brunson's comments on satellites .. here you go

Did you know that satellites ruined the cash games at the tournaments?

The players who previously came to town eager to risk their bankrolls against the top pros in side games suddenly discovered they could get their adrenaline rush by playing in these one-table shootouts, trying to win entries into the tournaments just by beating everyone at a single table. It was addictive for them. And it worked perfectly to increase the number of entrants in the tournaments. But it didn’t work well for those of us who had previously benefited when these inexperienced players bumped heads against us during those tournaments.

Satellites had arrived, and that kind of easy profit was gone. A few adventurous players still sought us out, wanting the challenge. But mostly, the opportunities for super-soft side games at tournaments were gone. Despite this, my poker bankroll continued to grow. It was almost all smooth sailing, almost all success. Everything went straight up.

It was a time when the Gamblers Invitational Golf Tournament, hosted by Jack Binion, brought all the gamblers together and boasted some of the biggest golf games in the history of the sport. Those who think that there’s big money of the PGA tour have no idea what goes on when a bunch of golf crazed gamblers get together. And it didn’t matter how well or how poorly you played the game, if you had a bankroll and a set of clubs, we’d figure out a way to make it a fair gamble.
