*** Official 2013 Stars Satellite Thread (Suggestions, Requests, Etc. - MTT, SNG, Steps) ** - Page 5 - MTT Poker Strategy

I really enjoy playing Steps on Full Tilt Poker because of its large variety of formats (6-Handed, MTTs, Heads Up Shootouts, Double Shootouts, Super Turbos etc.) ...

Steps on PokerStars just suck!

After winning a satellite seat, option for players to be seated at the tourneys first break, instead of being entered straight away?

Sunday's this would be very useful, giving player's a quick break.

This could reduce the lag that Stars gets when all the satellite winners are joined at the same time on major promotion events.

Fix the syncbreak for the 11$ 100 seats gtd to the sunday million sattelite.

There is no syncbreak right now so I have to sit out in that tournament for 5mins

I would really like a separate filter for the satellite tab. It would also be great if you could set this to filter by the buy in of the target tournament.

The Big $55 satellite ($10 HYPER 18 man 3 seats) runs from Mon - Sat but not on Sundays.

Overlook or design?

08:15 ET 11r AH has this text:

"This tournament is not part of the regular schedule."

It's been there since at least the beginning of 2012. Every day it gets a decent field and beats its GTD by 50%. Time to make it part of the reg schedule?

SCOOP main event sats should be labeled "SCOOP main event-H/M/L sat" instead of "SCOOP 43-H/M/L". It would make them a lot more appealing to be able to know it's a main event sat without having to click through the lobbies to see which one it is.

Why are the sats to Estrellas Marbella now 91+9 and 185+15 as opposed to 100+9 and 200+15. Why the rake increase? This is in Euros so you're earning more already from the exchange.

Furthermore these are sats to a Live Event that by one posters calculations is raked 18%. What's the real kicker for me is you penny pinch sats like this yet you lose 1100 euros on a piss poor sat offering to an FPS event despite being told 1 week in advance precisely how many people will enter the supersats (zero) and how many you'd get for the 109 sat that weekend.

/rant and lower the rake.

For two hours prior to the start of the Super Tuesday, run 10-handed $105+0 flips, winner gets a seat. I'm sure the fish would enjoy the sweat/getting a chance to play the 1K for cheap.

These are essentially $100+5 for you since $50 from each of them goes to the rake. It would make the 1K bigger and juicier and make a lot of ok regs that wouldn't play otherwise play. Good for trickle-down.

the following block of satellites to the saturday superknockout are sorted by the filter as regular speed, but they are both named and structured as turbos

721355004
721355006
721355008
721355010
721355014

the same is true for 721357121 to the sunday 500

The $15.5 9max sats to the RSO have 10% rake! That is way too much for a turbo in general but esp for a 43.5/43.5/13 payout structure and only 1k starting chips.

The hyper sats to the Red Spade Open are also 2 cents higher in rake than the other sats to $55 mtts. It seems a bit pointless if you ask me to make this slight money grab on these game types. If anything I'd have thought they would go the other way to encourage them to run, but maybe not.

This happens most often on Sunday's, the $1.65 3x rebuys are meant to have 60 minutes late reg but often closes at least five minutes before that. This is not due to max players being reached.

Asian friendly times for sats to non Asian live events ( ept wsop pca ) would be nice. Think there are a lot of people in Bangkok china oz that would play them I think having spoken to people out here Ty Ty Ty.

theres not much for stats in aus/aisia evening, any chance of more?

i know theres not a ton of traffic at those hours but ive never seen a sat at that time fail to hit the guarantee and entire 2 hour stretches without a cash buy in sat to an M or H is really going to make it difficult to sat into them......

and i guess im not counting $320 fo and 20/30rs to 700 sub sats because thats just way over my head wheras an 8r or 11r 1x 2x 3xt is not

could you please add more 5€+r and 2€+r sats for sunday special on ps.fr please? especially on sunday i think there should be a few more. maybe there is a chance to re-introduce the 1€+r warm up sats aswell? they seemed to be quite popular. hopefully this is the right thread. couldnt find a ps.fr thread.

edit: is there also a chance to offer monaco cup sats on .fr too? its kinda in france, isnt it!? :P
