Satellite Tournaments Poker is an exciting game that is played by many all over the world. One of the fastest growing ways to get into a poker tournament is to log on line to your favourite casino and start playing. One of the newest additions to the poker tournaments is a satellite. A satellite tournament is where the prize that is first given out is actually not a cash payout but a seat to let you into another tournament, which actually has the prize pool or pot. This can be tricky for some, as many people are expecting to win something right off the bat. The idea behind a satellite tournament is that you can enter an expensive tournament easily by simply winning the tournament that is less expensive. A good example of this would be to say 10 to 20 people sit down at a table and play for a $10 tournament. The winner of this game could win a seat into $100 tournament. The larger the satellite tournament is the more seats there may be available to win into the bigger tournaments. This is a good way for you to work your way up to the bigger and better games. Many people find it intimidating to start out in a tournament that has such a large pot so this works out well as it helps them to build a momentum so to speak. It also helps a person to build up confidence in their game play for the tournaments that offer larger pay outs. |
