Looking to grind a few of these out over the next month.

Anyone here tried similar and what were your findings?

Or should they be avoided?

I'd avoid these at all costs. Can I ask why you are thinking of grinding these in the first place? What is it that attracts you opposed to other games?

The absolute worse forum of poker imo. You want to play games which will improve you as a poker player; these don't at all. If you want to play single table tournaments then just play normal SnG's.

Thank you. I briefly assumed they might be a decent way to build a roll but I considered they would not be a good way to improve my game. I keep hearing that normal STTs are really hard to beat now in the long term and I didn't fancy grinding my way to a 2% ROI (a figure I keep reading about that winning players are just about managing.

Appreciate all advice on this - looking for a decent way to steadily attempt to build a roll and also work my way up through the VPP levels on Stars.

Decided to put aside $100 to play some of these for a bit of fun. Hammered the tables yesterday. I am playing the $3.30 Turbo games. So far:

Played: 118
ITM: 63.56%
Profit: +$21.60
ROI: 5.23%

Tiny sample I know but it's actually been a lot of fun.
