Default 3600 fpp sat vs 5400fpp sat

Stars usually hosts the 5400fpp top 4 win 215 entry into SM. How does this compare to the 3600 top 1 gets into 530 SM? I just play these to convert fpps to cash, so what would my likely itm be for these 3600fpp sngs? Which one of these has more value?

5400 and it's not close. Adanthar wrote a good post in the MTT forum about satellites and how double shootouts had much less value than satellites that paid out multiple spots.

While these are single table tournaments the logic still applies.

1. With 4/10 spots paying the same prize the presence of donks (and otherwise good players who don't understand proper strategy for the structure) will make this profitable for you.

2. With 1/10 spots paying you will have a much smaller edge to exploit and the presence of great players will greatly jeopordize your chances of success.

Not to mention the sick sick variance on a 1/10 game. Going 0 for 40 and losing 5 or 6 HUs would suck just a tiny bit.

What is a strong cash rate in the 5400's?

40-50%, more?

50%, would be a 25% ROI, right? That seems pretty solid.
