I am in the US (Florida) so I am limited on which rooms I can use. I have an account n BetOnline however I don't like there sit and go's. They don't have enough variety and there aren't enough active tables, IMHO. I liked the old party poker or Full Tilt. They both had a great variety and many online users. So With my limited access ability are there any better rooms than BetOnline. EG More sit & go's. BetOnline does have nice multitable tourneys.

Sit n Go volume is declining everywhere, but you could give ACR Poker (WPN) a chance. They have 6-mans, 9-mans and On-demand games, which run regularly except during the american morning hours like 3 am to 12 am ET.

I'm not sure about SnG traffic but I have some friends who play on Global Poker (USA friendly site) and are playing MTT's. They are doing pretty good on there and say the player pool is quite a bit softer than the ROW pool.

What don't you like about the SnG's on BetOnline?

They are either hyper or turbo, I don't mind that but once in a while I like to play just a normal paced game. It also seems like there isn't enough traffic, longer waits to get in a game. They have 8 man games I prefer 9 or 10 because the payout is a little higher. Also the entry of 7 15 or 30 I like to have a 10 20 30 entry. It's minor but that is what I like. I loved partypoker and FullTIlt but I'm US so I can't play there. I'll have to give Global a look. Thanks

I had an ACR account and basically I forgot about it. I think I might go back and give them a try. Thanks

ACR have a decent amount of regular speed SnGs running. Mostly 9-mans and less commonly 6-mans.

Fulltilt was my favorite room by far! I still miss it.

I don't mind adding in some Hyper MTT's at the end of a day if I've already been playing MTT's but I don't really like the Hyper SnG's either.
