I just checked out the lobby and things look better than last time for sure.

I think it's a mistake to run satellites to tournaments that are rebuy+add.

You're running a 1 chip rebuy satty to a 15 rebuy+addon 1500 guar.

You want to focus on attracting the players who can afford 1 chip and think 15 chips is a bit much.  Players will often be disappointed when they realize the ticket they just won will be worth much less if they dont come up with 15 more chips of their own to at least take the add on.

Schedule satellites to freezeouts only so that a ticket winners bankroll doesn't wont reduce their velue in the target event.


If you run satellites, you should have a Satellite Policy on how these situations will be handled:

A player wins a ticket and registers for target event - target event is cancelled

A player wins a ticket and registers for target event then wins 1 or more identical tickets.

A player registers for event with their own funds, then wins a satellite to the same event.

A player wins a ticket but forgets to register for target event.  There are no other tournaments scheduled with the same buyin.

A player wins a ticket but doesn't want to play target event.



If you ever decide to run satellites right before a tournament:

A satellite finishes after its target event has already started and late registration is still open.

A satellite finishes after its target event has already started and late registration is no longer available.
