haven't noticed them- thanks for the update will definitely have a go. imo that was the missing link in pokerstars offerings- if you wanted to play a sng you had to pay at least $1.50, so a move to $0.50 opens the floodgates, now only thing left to hope is to see $0.25 and $0.10 sng's and i am a new poker billionaire

I haven't noticed these so I will pop over a little later and check them out. Have they included this low but in in the steps games also? That might be nice but suspect that they probably haven't. Intesteting to see people's views on this co sother sites already have such low buy ins on sng's .

These type of events are great for us small players. You know how much you are going to win or lose before you start so it becomes easier to manage your bankroll. I hope you can keep your winning run going

actually thats exactly the format i wanted to see, i even remember crying about it to stars. It was some questionarie thingy, and i wrote a mini essay about lack of 15-30 mins timed tourneys and 25c-$1 single table sngs
its all good no need to thank me though, but once you get rich playing those tourneys, you know where to send money to.

Verry good, a new 0,50$ Level between 0,25$ and 1,00$ sng´s. Yep, the suckouts are unbelievable and it is impossible to beat the rake against the lucky donks. They say you are a winning player with solid playing, but it is not true...

Poker sites don't have promotions out of the kindness of their hearts. It is all to make you play. If you can't beat the tables in the promotion, then the promotion is likely to be -ev

@bemy- turbo 9 man sngs.
the big downside on these is quite a monumental rake ($0.44 + 0.06) which is ~13/14% one really needs to have a decent advantage over the rest of the filed if he expects to show a long term profit. anyways a good move, those small stakes games are always popular

So the 1.50s have the same % of rake, 3.50s also have 11%, and people beat both stakes at 10% roi if they're good, with masstabling surely not a good hourly to be made at the 0.50s but to start off a BR they should work positive with $50 starting BR it's possible to build up there at 7 Cents/game post RB per game, makes 1000 games till comfortably mix in 1.50s and then go from there, maybe I'll make a challenge of it, lets see

Well congratulations mate, continues to play it and make money off that game and once you comfortable move up the limit as at lower limit the rake is huge and you have to win more to be able to break even, if you move up the field might be tougher but you can still get a decent ROI and at the end of the day it is profit that counts not the amount of wins you made.
