Would someone please explain Satellites to me. Like how they differ from Sit & Gos, and Other Tournaments. When they run etc... If there is a link one can offer on the Full Tilt site that explains Satellites in detail that would be great too. Thank you in advance!

Welcome tot he forums, MK.

Satellites don't differ from sngs or tournaments, they are sngs and tournaments. Except, instead of winning cash you win seats into higher buy-in tourneys. People play satellite tourneys and sngs so they don't have to risk so much money buying directly into tourneys.

For example, the Fifty-Fifty tourney at 21:30. You could pay the $55 to buy in or you could play the $6+.6- satellite tourney at 18:55 and try to win your way in. Basically, for every 9 or so players who play the satellite tourney FTP awards 1 seat to the Fifty-Fifty tourney.
