Padzz,
Can I suggest you speak to Customer Care please?
I'll speak to the Office about it today (I forgot to ask them last week, sorry!), but Customer Care is the best route.
I'd say one of the most important things in satellites is knowing which stack sizes to go after. If you're down to say 10BB, doing a steal against people with less than 10BB is risky because they know they're short and might take a gamble knowing they have to at some point. If you do it against a 40-50BB stack, they may be more willing to call. But if you shove into people with 15-20BB, they will be very reluctant to call when they know losing one race will put them in the danger zone.
So you want to be bullying the people who are around the same stack as you or a little bit bigger, because they're the people who will most fear losing against you.
Tight is right in satellites, certainly at the start, in the middle stages you want to open up a bit, try to be stealing and bullying the right people (as above) and then when you're getting really close, you can start assessing whether you have enough to fold to a seat, whether you need to just get another steal or two in to keep you above water etc. Always keep an eye on the stacks of everyone in the lobby.
Hope this helps.
Yup, 8pm Friday, & knowing DTD, not a nana-second later - they are incredibly good (by B & M standards) at starting events punctually.
Look forward to seeing you there.
Welcome friend and hope that this isn't your last pot.......the forum is there for people interested in poker who want to enjoy it too. The poker clinic is a cracking place to put your hands and get a 'variety' of opinions!!!!
As for sats....i feel tight is right at the start and open up just as a normal T. However, watching stack sizes and positions is crucial in these as it will signal when you need to take action or retreat back into our shell!!
Try a few QF sats as cheat and will give you chance to experiment a bit.
There is something euphoric about getting thro' a Sat.....you've now got a free game. i love it!!! All the bst fella...
Thanks again guys, hopefully make it into the main event tonight then who knows?!
PLEAESE SORT ME ONUT PLZ LEAKKY BREAKS
Well done Toady, & thanks to those who help with the replies here.
Was wondering if you could have a quick look into this thread for me in Sky_Dave's absence

All being well, his name should appear in the lobby in due course.
I will be offline until mid-afternoon, but if any problems arise with his, I will sort it then.
The rest of the tournaments with a TV icon (which the minis all have nowadays, I think) are available to be shown on the channel but you need to send in a particular hand ID to the show, including the date, time and tournament name. If the hand is interesting it may be shown on the Poker Clinic on Thursdays.
So if you want a hand to be shown, pick out an interesting one and send it in to the show. Ask the analyst what they think of your play and there's a good chance that it will be shown.
hi tikay.
please could you show hand 562030391 from mastercash 4 as i would like to know if my fold on river was good..or bad long term. it made sense to me at the time given the play but looking back at it im now thinking i should have called but is this just because i would have won the hand.
this would be much appreciated
many thanks adam
