min entrants: 3 3.33s 2xs to warm up typically small fields and ave 2 seats
min entrants: 9 2.22 2xs to mil, twice the average field and 2-5 seats, ive never seen one overlay
min entrants: 9 2.22 2xs to mil, canceled half the time

no moral to this story, just an observation, carry on

The 3.33's min entrants should be raised to 4 and the 2.22's should be dropped to 5-6 imo.

Just here to cmplain about the satellites to the ANZPT Auckland again. Min 4 entrants, had 3 plus a few satellites still to finished and cancelled. Please do something or you will have next to no online qualifiers. Also I think the $91.80 hypers to the 425 should have 3 as a minimum not 4.

I also think you need to keep starting times of regional satellites consistent for the area where the target is held not server time.

Any particular reason the SM 11$ 100 seats doesnt go into break?

As was mentioned before can you please drop the min entrants for $2.22 2x sats to mill to 5 or 6 and also drop the min entrants for the 1.65 3x to 6 as sometimes they dont start during offpeak times but would hit their guarantees.

The 22:53 ET 2.22 2x sat started with 9 players and ended up with 42 players, awarding 1 ticket and 2nd prize of $199 so even if start with 5-6 players will still hit the 1 seat guarantee and this is near the most quiet part of the day.

How about 50c (48c+2c) Spin and Go satellites?

2x multi = 1$ Spin and Go ticket
6x multi = 3$ ticket
14x multi = 7$ ticket
30x = 15$ ticket
60x = 30$ ticket

Winners would always be raked at least twice.
And close to busto players have a chance to get back into action with their last fifty cents.

Why not have a weekly $11 freeze out with 1 PCA package guaranteed.

1600 runners could easily be reached if you ran 10fpp 3x sats on the hour with one $11 seat guaranteed along with cash sats.

I admired Stars commitment a few years back when they did the $11 dollar 10 package guarantee freeze outs but of late I don't see many offerings that nearly guarantees a rec player will win a package. Throw these rec players a bone.

Hello all,

For those of you with an interst in 6 Max Sit & Go Hyper Satellites, I encourage you to have a look at my latest post over at the STT Sit & Go forum.

We are going to run a trial with blind levels based on number of hands instead of time, and the discussions will take place in that thread.

Thanks,
Baard

Please add x3 fpp sats for the kickoff/warmup/mill

The wcoop proved x3 fpps sat are popular enough to run hourly or every other hour

I assume this payout structure is a mistake? This is a 75fpp+r satelite to a 10kfpp target, and you're breaking the prizepool up into 20fpp increments... It's the same for the 40fpp+r sats to the 2500fpp targets too.

Think also they should replace 3.33r x2 with an x3 sat for the warmup.

During week days the number of entrants in 3.33r x2s are quite low and the x3 format is far more popular with players

Would also like to see an improvement on the $t system.There are a load of players who just grind the sats, sell the $t and cashout, every month, not putting any dollar back in games like sngs or mtts.
I believe you should not be able to sell $t, and should be forced to play with the $t so it improves sng and mtt action.
But maybe so it doesnt hurt players who grind hyper sat sngs or sng sats create 2 types of $t banks.One for sngs and one for mtts, keeping the sng $t as it is right now where u can sell/trade $t, but making the $t in mtt bank none transferable/sellable.

Where do you think the $T goes?! It has to be used at some point!

This, sats should be for fish to play above their roll, not to make a living off. Pretty pathetic way of grinding anyway, but it shouldn't be allowed.

MTTs should be a way for fish to win money to play high stakes cash not make a living. Pretty pathetic way of grinding anyway.

It's almost as if this idea was motivated by a desire to reduce the appeal of satelites to some of the more competent players!

Seriously gtfo with such transparent self-serving BS. We get it, you'd like to see fewer good regs and more recreational players in your games. Wouldn't we all. Proposing restrictions on other players for your own benefit is pretty scummy.

Doesn't seem like that to me. These tourneys are called satellites, he's basically saying they should function as their name suggests, not like tourneys where the top finishers get an equal $-amount.
