Unlike traditional satellites, which require you to survive until a certain number of players remain, Target Stack Satellites operate differently. Here, you win your seat for the target event by reaching a specific chip stack size, known as the target stack.
Imagine a satellite with a target stack of 20,000 chips. Once your stack hits 20,000, you've secured your seat in the bigger tournament! It's a clear goal, perfect for players who can focus on building their stack towards a set target.
Lower Buy-in, Higher Stakes: Play for a fraction of the cost compared to the target event, giving you a shot at the bigger buy-ins.
Clear Goal: The target stack keeps your strategy focused. Build your way up and claim your seat!
Faster Gameplay: With players eliminated upon reaching the target stack, the tournament progresses quicker than traditional satellite tournaments.
A Target Stack satellite is a tournament that awards entries to another tournament. Players win entries by converting their starting chips into the Target
Stack via gameplay. As soon as a player reaches the target stack, they win an entry and they (and their chips) are removed from the game.
When players reach the target stack, they are removed from the tournament and awarded a prize. Their Target Stack has also been removed from play.
If a player has more chips than the Target Stack, the excess chips will be awarded to the player(s) involved in the hand where they reached the target stack. Chips will be distributed equally, with any fractional chips awarded to the first player to act in the hand.
If no players remain who were involved in the hand (all eliminated), the entire stack of the winning player is removed.
This should not be possible as the formula used to calculate the number of entries awarded also considers chips removed when players win seats, meaning there will always be something to play for until the last entry is awarded.
