Do you mean the Hyper-turbo 990 mans on stars?

I started with freerolls and theese. It is doable, just hard as hell.
If you can get 10 bucks for the 360man 0.10 turbos that's better IMO. 100 Bi's recommended.

I'd say just deposit $10 and play 25c, 50c 45/90man MTT SnG.

I woulden't waste my time playing the 2c 990 man games, firstly the variance is huge and secondly having 50 buy-ins for these games just isn't going to be enough. I'd prefer to take my chances with 4 buy-ins at 25c 45 man games.

Let's say a bankroll is 1$. Is it worth playing in 0.02$ sit & go's?
50 bi for hyper this small br, need how min 2$ this 100bi , because very large variance, you will have 20-30 BI without ITM.
When i play this limit i have strategy : only push or fold.. My push range : all pairs, all suited connectors, Ax, all images.
Must be very great patience to beat this limit.

10$ for 0.50c MTT SNG only for regs , not many people are going to beat this limit with 20 BI. If you do not regs , you just lose.
For the majority need at least 100 BI.

I was 2 times second on this "tournament". Play a wide range of hands. Is something like loterry i am on + on this tournament but i think it's not profitable. I play this tournament because i want to get ticket to daily challenge and i had luck.
U could play 10c 360 but not with 1$
Make some deposit and take some bonus. Check pokerschool at PS and make some quiz where u could win some ticket and make BR bigger.

Well obviously 100 buy-ins is standard... but I'm saying it's a better idea to do that than playing 2c 990man players with $1. Of course 20 buy-ins isn't great but minimum deposit is $10 on stars and it's not a huge amount where losing would make a massive difference and you have a better chance of turning a profit whilst moving up without to much of a concern of losing much money. Trying to grind out 2c hyper's on $1 just seems like a complete waste of time and personally if I was him my approach would be depositing that or more if he has it.

Also; these games are so soft where 100% of the players are going to be terrible where I think it's possible you could actually do it without going bust with 20 buy-ins. Of course if you can deposit a little more that would be better but I'm unsure if OP can.

That said, even depositing $10 for the 10c 360man turbos is better than the 2c games. It's going to be super easy to move up after a week if you put in some good volume assuming you can beat the limits because I'd imagine the fields are still as soft as they used to be where most if not all are losing players.

The lowest sng at pokerstars is .02 hyper, 990 players. With a bankroll of 1 dollar, its not enough. You can enter the money about 40 tries. That said you already spend .8c and will just win 1. You gain .2 but the effort you exert doesnt pay at all.

If you've never played poker for money and you want to get a feel for playing with real money without actually risking anything you should go for it. The level of play will be so bad that your ROI should be astronomically high.

my opinion, it's a waste of time. no one's going to take it seriously. get your bank up and try the 2.20 9 man sngs

I use them if I'm on tilt... better to waste 0.02$ than anything else!
