2 tournament structures, both Satellites, which gives the better odds?

1) 1/4 final- 1/10 qualify to semi, itself 1/10 thru to final. So 2x tourneys both 1/10 to qualify for final

2) Prelim 1/5 qualify to 1/4 final. 1/4 final 1/5 thru to semi. Semi 1/5 qualify for final. So 3x tourneys all 1/5 to qualify for final.

Am I right scenario 1 is 1/100 and scenario 2 is 1/125.

Preparing for teacher to send me away with an F for maths again.

PS - got your PM mate. May not be able to reply tonight, I have a bit of a backlog, but in short, send the screen-name to me, with a note formally approving the transfer from your Account, & I'll sort the rest.

Without looking in to this too deeply I'm going to guess that even though your odds are better for qualifying in option 1 You have to pay a bit extra for the privilege.
