Which SNGs whould I start playing?

#1 22nd June 2011, 4:09 PM

Thinking of moving from cash to sngs for a while. My roll is $400. I love the 90 player knockouts on pokerstars, but I am not sure if I can handle not cashing often, might find it frustrating. I like the new fifty / 50 sngs and the games seems soft. DON bores the life outta me.

So with my roll would it be a good idea to go for $3.50 fifty / 50s mixed with 18-27 player multi table sngs or should I be playing higher stakes?

If you don't know if you're able to beat the lower stakes with some consistency why consider playing higher stakes? As with everything 'it depends'. I mean > do you have much experience playing SNG/MTT MTT-SNG, SNG/STT, etc.? (cuz if you do.. then obviously you will know... if you don't then you'd likely be better off starting out low imo).

If you dont have time constraints while playing, try the 45s, 90s etc. I love playing mtts but unfortunately dont have the time often enough. Have you got anything against normal STTs?

some sites offer double ups with 4-6 players top 3 earn, they are quick and sound like something you might enjoy!

I think you should put your balls in a vice-grip instead. Sound less painful.

18-27 man is perfect, even 45, but IMO, lower your limit to start with, you can always go up a level when your more comfortable.
