Generally these tournaments are a constant shooting, you have to have money to be able to play several at once, if you intend to win a ticket to a small or large tournament playing a single satellite you are wrong, I am not good at getting percentage of possibilities but I would tell you that you have 1% of achieving it

Sometimes I've played them... but I definitely don't feel any motivation knowing that if I manage to be among the prize-winning positions, I'll have to go to another satellite...

Satellite tournaments are an excellent way for players who have a very low bankroll and aspire to enter a tournament with significant earnings. In my case I have managed to win tickets and then stay in profit positions. Also, if you are a good player, you can get entry to good tournaments by investing little money even if you have to enter directly. Stories of players who have even started playing Freeroll then 2 or 3 satellites and then make good winnings on guaranteed mains!

I have not played much of this since as they said it is a constant shooting, where money is required to play them!

I always play satellites, I've used them to enter larger tournaments many times, for example, the last time I entered a $50 tournament via a $2.5 satellite. Entering such a tournament directly can damage your bankroll.

sim, é muito bom jogar satélite para ter um alto conhecimento do torneio que você vai jogar caso ganhe a entrada!

I play them just to play. I don't take them seriously. I play them when I'm tired

I always play satellites and have used them many times to participate in major tournaments, for example, there was a passage to MT 320 $ through a series of satellites starting with 1 cent and winning $ 675. For the last time, the satellite is $1 for a ticket of $5.5 and the prize is $ 114. In general, I collected all my bankroll on satellites, one thing is bad, the time spent on getting a ticket is very much, so now I don't play often.

I don't like it taking a lot of time without benefit, otherwise there is no professionalism, everyone works all in without any thinking🤣

I like to play satellite tournaments very much.
You play with a completely different strategy, not many players understand it, so the game is very profitable.
The next step to reach the cash register and build a bankroll at no great cost.

The best option to participate in major tournaments is to qualify in satellites. My first participation in a major Sunday Million tournament took place just 2 months after I learned how to play poker, thanks to the satellite

The number of steps varies. On average, these are 5-7 phased tournaments. I can't stand it.....

I used to play a lot in satellites. I even managed to win tickets worth 50 and 100 dollars several times. Satellites are a good alternative for players with a small bankroll, but of course it all depends on the player's skills, patience and discipline.

I don't recommend playing satelites unless you wanna see the sickest bad beats and stupidest plays getting lucky, also most of them are hyper turbo so luck is factor about 90%
Few hours ago i played 15 satellites with buy-in of 1.5$ and didn't win seat.
The tournament buy-in was 15$ so i wasted 22.5$ to win a seat to 15$ buy-in tournament.
Luckily i played some final tables of other tournaments and get my money back.
In the satelites my premium hands where cracked by trash hands almost everytime.
Example: I (about 25bb) have AA in middle position and i raise 2.2BB and the person in the button (also about 25BB) push all in and i instantly call, he shows 93s and he flops 2 pair and i am out 😀
I may be smiling now but then i was so angry and tilted 😂

I have not played that many satellites, but I have had good results in those, I played, and I kind of like them, because its something different. However I have had poor results in the tournaments, I qualified for, and satellites are not good bankroll management. And for that reason I have kind of taken a step back from satellites and not played them for the last 2-3 month.
