Which site/network do you think is the best for sit and gos. Especially 5 - 50$. I like the ipoker network and pokerstars because of the playervolume but not always the easiest games. Any suggestions?

If you are looking for fishy sites try the OnGame network, Everest or Pacific/Lucky ace. Player volume is lower than at stars or ipoker, but games fill up quite fast. Rake on Ongame is usually higher. And shorthanded is only 5 max, even for SnGs. But SnGs clear a bonus there quite fast.

Yea man, try pacific poker... there are a lot of sit and go structures that make you earn easy cash if you play fine. Don't need to built up a bankroll, just make the request thru bankroll mob
PKR is also nice, because you pay only 0.10$ fee at the 1$-sit'n'go's... (people would get to much pkr-points for clothes, otherway).... ; -)
Well..., you should always play, where you have a good feeling. Me, for example, I have a very good feeling at Unibet, that I can easy rule the table..., and a very bad at Pokerstars..., that opponents are all sharks. Thats no way objective..., I'm sure that the opponents are same strong at both..., but that doesn't matter. If you have a good feeling, than take it..., if you have a bad feeling, put it away...... : -P

10% rake is not really that good. Most rooms offer this. I guess only ongame rips of their players with 20 or even 30 percent raked SnGs. And party of cause. Their 3$ SnGs are 2,4 $ + 0,6 $

hehehe..., I'm a micro-gamer... ; -) ... At the 1$-Sit'n'go's, I guess the most pokerrooms take more. At the higher buy-ins, 10% is the usual, that's right.....
And ongame really seems to be a little bit to greedy. But at last, I only play the 1$-pokerisland-satellites and the 100.000$-freerolls there. I also don't like, that the winnigs are shared to the first two, not to the first three players at the 10er-sit'n'go's at ongame. But that's a question of the personal preference.

I played on ipoker, cryptologic, everest, party, mansion, ladbrokes and PKR.
I play for 1 month now on PKR and i think they give you the most for your points. Its easy tomake points also with sit n gos. With points you can buy buyins for nice sit n gos or tourneys. Also their double thrus sit n gos are easy and a good way to build up a bankroll. Bad thing is they start with $10 not $5, $3 or $1. But for me no problem.
Also PKR give me rakeback after 2 months (dont know how much must be between 20%/30%) So for me PKR is place to be
I'd say LuckyAce - lots of fish there and the SnG's fill up pretty quick - also they have a wide range of buy-ins for SnG's from .50 cents all the way to $100 so you can pick your levelo have some really good multi table sng's like their $8 - 20 person or the $5 - 50 person - with insane amounts of fish, you can practically sit out an dstill make it in the money.

I guess this is the key why the games there are so soft. Players who usually would play 1-3 dollar SnGs are forced to play 10 dollar ones. And their level of play is not good enough for these games. Good for the sharks on this site.

Posted by doomdy: I mean there are $1 sit n gos but not double thrus, they start with $10
That's cool, I've been playing the double ups on ipoker. THey have $5 ones there but $10 ones have easy competition too. $20 take too long to get game going.
