Favourite online site

 Does anyone know what site is best for playing MTTs (about 5 tables would be nice) with around a $30-50 buy in, and has about 5000 starting stack with a 20 minute clock.....?

this would be pretty good play, better than the 1500 starting stack and a 15 min clock on stars, and avoiding the horrendous bad beats that i seem to get on blue square.

if i find the perfect tournment for me i would be playing more often, seems to me like the websits are usually doing a structure that suits them, and not actually making too many tournments where skill will help you get in the money as apposed to luck......Thanks.

Smiler, id say uv got enough to take a shot at ten dollar sngs now, no way u need 1000 to play them, id play them with a bankroll ov around 200 dollars, 20 dollar sngs are different, would love advice on what a decent bankroll for those would be?

chris, i"ve seen your sharkscope and you can definitely move up to $20. i think a min of $660 (30 buyins) supports this. you can always move back down and crush $10 again if it goes tits up.

W Young, stars do a lot of decent guarenteed prize pools, with 3000 starting chips and 15 minute blinds which ive always thought is a decent structure. As said earlier full tilts tournys also have very good strucures and there are a lot of them for about 24 dollars. Cheers swinebag, i tried briefly playin the 20 dollar sngs on stars four at a time but noticed quite a difference with the amount of three betting and aggression compared to 5 and 10 dollar sngs which you can play on auto pilot. only played 8 to 10 of them so will prob give them a go when ive completed 40 more sngs at 10 dollar. So sad but just wanna get on the average profit leaderboard on sharkscope for ten dollar sit n gos lol need 40 more to have played enough to qualify

yeah im probably being a bit too cautious what i usually do before i move up a level is if im up in profit at the end of the month i play a few at the higher level just to get a glimps of the standard of play

Ladbrokes do daily $10 5000 chip with 15min levels at 6.15 which is good for an early finish.


But i"m currenty wasting my time (cant get passed rnd 2) trying to win a free seat at WSOP Main Event on FTP through the sng freerolls.

Well my fav is AP, I know a lot of people slate it, but their sngs are 9 handed instead of ten, and it"s the site that makes me the most money.

Have quite a few downloaded and flit about a bit.

Haven"t played online for a couple of weeks until about an hour ago, came 2nd in my first sng back, so really should start playing more again, especially since just realised regionals are back at last!

Im a convert from Stars to FTP. Love their tourney structures, was introduced a month or so back and havent regretted it since.  Got 2nd in a $24+2 $4.5kgtd a few weeks back so im liking FTP even more lol

Ive just signed up to FT last night. Not played anything yet, just having a browse, im not keen on stars, the only reason being that they dont do rakeback, and with being used to playing on blonde and will hill which do 30% rakeback, you can get it on there.. ill have a gander at the cash I think to work off the bonus..

The 30% rakeback on Will Hill"s? Do WH pay it directly or do you have to sign up through a rakeback site/affiliate?

Well I don"t know about favourite, but least favourite is our sponsors I"m afraid. Only down to the fact that I can"t seem to win on this site, it is one bad beat after another. I won a MTT SNG at the weekend, and then cashed again on Monday night, and I thought maybe I had finally cracked this site, but then on two cash tables in a row my kings lost to aces. Then last night after being made the short stack by a runner runner flush, I quadrupled up only to go out in 10th when my trips were beaten by a rivered gut shot.
Oh hell this has turned out to be just a bad beat whine, sorry guys!!

I play a fair bit on our sponsor site and my only surprise in your post is that aces held up, you clearly weren"t playing me. The last time I didn"t lose with aces on blue square was a split pot when the board was a straight. I"m on a bad run on blue square just now consistently losing real make or break hands close to or just beyond the bubble normally when getting my chips in in front against someone who has me covered. However I am going to stick with it because I believe luck evens itself out so I am going keep doing the same thing and wait patiently for my hands to hold up and the cash to come pouring in.

Don"t tell anyone but I do quite like PKR although I don"t play on it too often, the play is quite slow and I don"t find it easy to play two tables on it. I have also suffered a lot less bad beats on PKR than any other site I"ve played on which is quite surprising given that most people think it"s frequented by fishy gamers.

the only site i lose on consistently is bluesquare.I play on five other sites regularly doing the same things in the same situations and make a resonable profit on all of them.It just seems,and i agree with previous posts,that the capacity to be outdrawn or to have accepted bad play rewarded is somewhat higher on bluesquare.This is not a random whinge,i keep records of all play on a daily basis and the maths do support this.Anyone else got any thoughts on this.

Yeah i have a thought on it - it"s all codswallop. BSQ is not worse or better than any other site. Bad beats are just part of the game, wherever you play, both online and live in the same ratio. BSQ is just part of the whole iPoker network - and i make a nice return from play at iPoker, both on BSQ and Titan.

Hi Rio

Is it 4 days since I was on here last...    Anyway, I signed up through Julian Thews blog, thats where I saw the first thing about rakeback.. Anyway Hill just pay the rakeback every week without fail straight back into your account. I dont think you have to go through an affiliate, but check out blonde, they have loads of banners not sure they mention rakeback, i think it mentions a sign up bonus only..
