The satellites sometimes frustrate you when you don't get it fast, sometimes you get desperate and lose more money than usual that you would need to enter the tournament, I think the best decision is to play it 3 times at most if it does not come out you retire, that if you have the bank you play the amounts you want.
As i,ve said, this offer is only good for highrollers, who can play this limits and don,t be scared to loose lots of money, just because this will be not such a big money for them. This $10 Spins is too expensive and too random. Need to care about the bankroll.

It's not poker from 10 years ago with blinds at 10 minutes for satellites. Most of them are fast at small amounts, and have more time for big tournaments qualifications, but the rush of poker rooms has changed a lot. Anyway, everyone gains time.

So it is too expensive but it is what we have, so it is not mandatory to play it, each one chooses whether to play it or not, they only put the offer or promotion, the client evaluates and then decides, but in my opinion it is a matter of banking each player and the experience you have playing these formats.

The urge to play these tournaments comes if you regularly try satellites for big games. This makes me ambitious and don't give up until i manage to qualify. It is true that i did not play too much for huge games, but only up to 300 dollars or euro i managed to qualify. Moreover, it was not possible, because i only tried very rarely and without succes.

even this is promotion at party poker and site that he cant even play,we must have post every day how he dont play satellites for big tournaments and so on,such amazing thing would be good to see did anybody from forum try at least one of this spins for 10 $ and what prize he had on table,no matter did he won or not!but if you play few spins and on win on one ticket of 55 $,then you didnt make some good job!
I just don,t understand, why they can,t offer some nice promotions, like it was even 1-2 years ago. I remember, that they had some nice promotions. Everyone can build the bankroll. Everyone can have cool prizes for easy challenges. And all that promotions that i see now, looking not easy to particiapte at all with a small bankroll.

Poker rooms can no longer offer which was in the past, because number of players it diminished with appearance of other new rooms. There is not much wagering like in the good old days. Party resists well for now and grows and this thing is very good for they.

Yes everything is going that way in almost every industry. And everyone want's just instant results. Not allot of people is prepared to get hours of work for good result. This is how it is. But i am old school still believe that hard work , dicsipline and dedication will lead you to achive to your goals. Which doesn't mean you cant' reach them quicker, but you must have luck. That's why all those tourneys are so popular like jackpot spins.

Where is a lot of money there is a temptation to play and this thing is normal. I don't play like in the past... when i played a few games almost every day. I got bored because there are few players in tournaments, but when something interesting comes u... i try to qualify for medium tournaments in order to win some money. You must to play satellites, if you want something interesting because luck is nice sometimes.

in the past satellites were stronger and for some games 20% of total players qualified, other times only 10% or less. Percentage for this big tournament is even lower, but try to dream beautiful and be ambitious. After all, success is all that matters if you make money.
dule-vu , for sure, new players who don,t know much about poker want to play faster games, and i understand all this promotions about Spins and so on. I just think, that in past poker rooms, and especially PP spent more money on promotions, and now all promotions is not good at all. Maybe because rooms right now not ready to spend more money on promotions.

These satellites games for 2.100 dollars it would be much more attractive if there was only one entry, 3 rebuys maximum and one add-on. Each of them with $ 10. Maximum to spend will be $ 50 and for that more players would fight with good ambition.

yes,they like faster games,same as we like for example option of fast spins on slots,but I talk about younger people that want that everything is faster in their world,that they dont have time for anything,for sports,to watch football game for 90 minute because its too long for them,to play poker tournaments for 4 hours! thats problem and thats why they make this kind of fast games for new generation and with this promotion they will take more money as poker site!

fast games are good for low stakes. The others with blinds at 7 - 8 minutes or more, should be for medium and large games. Here we also include satellites. Steps must be taken to make these qualifications more important and players to fill the tables.
I also don,t like to spend many hours for a long going tourneys. I remember, couple of times i was playing for 7 hours, i was going good with a big chip ammount, after that i lots couple of hands and won couple of bucks. That was a big disappointment, to spend 7 hours for a few dollars.

this is true, but i repeat in another way: tournaments with satellites must be modified according to the buy-in and blinds. We can't waste 7 hours for 5 dollars profit, but bigger amounts it's completely different and it's worth to playing more.
