I remember discussing this very subject with Roundtower once upon a time and like you, I used to be paranoid about paying too much in satts trying to win a seat in a main event. He explained that if you feel you have an edge in these satts, then it doesnt really matter and you should go and play another one. If you have an edge in the satts, the likelihood is that you'll win your ticket. Since he explained his thinking on this to me (maybe i'm not explaining it very well here), I changed my opinion on it and very happy to have done so.
