Am I going at the wrong time?

Honestly, it's a bit difficult to get non-NLHE satellites going at all. THe last 4 years, I've been lucky to get 1 satellite going for each non-holdem event I've wanted to play. The stud/8 events tend to go off the easiest.

If you talk to the satellite coordinators they'll grab you a dealer and announce a satellite for your event. If you manage to get 1/2 a table you'll likely fill (often with a few players who don't even know what game it is), but its an unending series of guy buys in, dealer tells him its omaha, guy leaves.

Of course, you can use lammers from holdem satellites to enter any event you'd like.
