    Who can help me with this. Annie says she is no longer involved with the schedule anymore and Im not surprised because if she was it wouldnt be the mess that it is. Why are there no longer any non-turbo satellites into larger tournaments? All satellites are turbo events that require a lot of button smashing but no poker skill. What has to happen to get some non-turbo satellites into larger buyin events back on the schedule?

    The sites dont like consistant winners who withdraw money, away from the site.
    They want everyone to play crapshoots/luckfests where the money is more likely to be spread out more evenly.
    The money circulates more, while they keep skimming the cream off bit by bit!

    Thats why, they have also all started playing academies.
    They dont want bad players, who lose their money quickly, and dont play again, they want them to linger.

    FullTilts the same with satellites, 99% turbos and thats days before the comp.

    Usually if you get on early to play sattys you can find some non turbo ones to larger events but as it gets closer to the tournament sattelites go from normal -> turbo -> super turbo
