Title: Things you always wanted to know but were afraid to ask
Post by: Mr F on April 26, 2006, 01:19:54 PM
So being a Blonde has helped me get over the fact that I don't know much and if I have a question I should ask.  So this thread is for anyone like me who thinks there being stupid and will be ridiculed if they ask a simple question.

I'll kick off.

Will someone please tell me the difference between a satellite and a super satellite?  (And please no references to metal things that orbit the Earth)

Satellite= single table

Super satellite= milti table

Thanks Red,

Next question,

What's a milti-table?

(Sorry I couldn't resist) ;goodvevil;

I always thought a super satallite was a satallite to a satallite. Well I've learned something new today anyway.

why is it that the number of satellites I play for the wsop directly correlates to the number of games i loose. Isn't there a mathematical equation I can use that will prove that at some time I will eventually win a table? :(

the egg. there were things laying eggs long before they evolved into chickens.

The mathematical equation you are seeking is

V = N x T

Where V is the position in the tournament you are trying to achieve

N is the number of runners in the tournament and

T is the number of tournaments you wish to play to achieve V

So if you only want to play 1 tournament and you want to finish first then the equation becomes

1 = N x 1

Therefore the only number that will make this mathematical equation possible is if N=1, therefore you need to find a tournament with only yourself as the participent.

(i believe i've passed this wisdom to you once before!)

Therein ends this open university lesson ;)

x-(tight passive)/y-(fish per table) all divided by your aggression quotient

Tight did once advise me that playing on ones own normally resulted in a win but i didn't beleive him. Thank you for your wisdom monkey boy ;-)
