Just wanted to point out that pokerstars is now offering .25 45-seat and 90-seat SNGs.

So, if you're trying to build some micro-BRs, you might want to check/try these out.

Yes I think this is the best option for the smallest rolls now. I was never a fan of the .10 turbos as BR builder, but I think ppl can build with these. I played a few the other night and was surprised it took longer than a $1 tourn (15 min levels) to make the money with 10 min levels.

The .25nl is better than the .10nl because it is a 2000 chip starting stack and the blinds are different.

Point of post was to let those, who aren't ballin' at PokerStars with millions of dollars, know that there are SNGs geared for them to help build their BRs.

How much did you get for 2nd place? I'm new to all this online poker stuff, but I tried a couple of the 0.10 / 360 player turbo tourneys last night. I was dealt an AK on the first hand, followed somebody who had gone all-in, and then 3 other players also went all in. So there were 5 of us all-in on the first hand dealt. I have the strongest hand of the lot but the player with J-8 ends up winning (of course). Jumped into a second one and did better -- 11th place. After grinding it for over an hour, I get paid a measly 0.40. I don't think I'll be doing them again very often. I typically do better than winning 0.40 an hour in the micro ring games.

I agree its very low. But in the spirit of proper bankroll management, 0.10-0.25 sit n gos and 0.01-0.02 ring games comes in handy. I actually think that Full Tilt and should learn from other sites and offer some lower games that 0.05-0.10. Everyone keeps preaching proper bankrollmanagement. But that would actually mean that you would have to deposit atleast 200 $ before You sit down at a ring game on Full Tilt. A bit much if You ask me.

why do you have to deposit at least 200.00, for a ring game at ftp, min. deposit is 50.00, I think thats enough to start playing ring games at 5/10cts

I agree with you. I did the $50 deposit and doubled up in two weeks. seems easier in ft than ps. imo

What do you consider proper bankroll managment is.
Some say that you should have atleast 30 buyins before you go to a specifik level others say 20 is enough, and I belong to the last group, maybe somewhere inbetween meaning 25 buyins. Which means if you want to start out on 0.05-010 level. You should have atleast 200-250 dollars on your bankroll.
