hello everyone. I just got my account approved (hell yeah! ). I wanna ask about what's the best poker room to play SNG in double-or-nothing. I got my first poker experience playing on Party Poker (before i singed on BM.com) but DONs really sucks on Party (only starting 6$, huge rake, slowly filling). So i want to request no-deposit for the room that offers something better. Basically thing i'd like to see is: micro limits DONS (1$ or smth like this), not very big rake, and not turbo blind system. Can u ppl recommend something in this way?

At Ipoker they are very fishy but huge rake on lower limit. At PKR they are also very fishy but start at $5. Cake offering them with very low rake but dont know wots lowest buyinn. Pokerstars have normal and turbo both very fishy, start at $1 i think, with low rake, so i guess Stars wud be the best option.

There are no sites with that type of play to my country, or at least i still haven't senn it on Action Poker... but you can enter the sites before making download to know what type of games do they offer!
Pokerstars for sure. Starting from 1 $ and only 10 % rake, at the higher limits even 4 or 5 %, you have turbo and normal, rake for normal is bit higher and turbo is like 5 minute blinds, so it's doable, I play the turbo 5 $ if I play DoN, mostly I play 3 $ turbo sng's, easy competition but there's no no deposit bankroll for pokerstars I think, you have to deposit.

Pacific poker is a good place for that, low rakes and a lot of fishes. Everest poker and pokerstars too, but theres no no deposit offer...
With the experiences I had with that kind of SitnGo, I would strongly recommend everyone to play it only at PokerStars. They take less rake, fill up quick and of course the PS software is one of best so you'll not feel bored + remember that multitabling there not complicated...
Yeah i know that pokerstars is good, but no no-deposit (and i have few months to kick all bonuses, cashout and go out from party). So right now deposit-only rooms is not a choise. Rake is actually isnt so important, i know i can grow my bankroll even with huge rakes, thing that really matter is normal (or fast but not goddamn turbo) speed and small buyin. Looking at the thread i think i should go with Ongame or Ipoker. So what is the best among them (in your, ppl, opinion)?

Never ever play them at iPoker!!! Blinds will be very fast 600 chips, and now it comes, then you get sucked-out nearly every damn hand!! Believe me, DONT play them at iPoker!!!

Well, u are told everywhere in the web that no poker room is rigged. Though i could swear iPoker is (at least in cases belonging to me...) or i am just the unluckiest dude in the whole wide universum (---->unfair )

Everest offering DoNs nowadays? Didnt know that .......
Ops,... my bad. Its not easy to keep the overview, when you play at +10 poker rooms. I was thinking about cake, but dunno why I wrote Everest... Sorry about that..

I like the ipoker network to play Double or Nothing! But you can use a lot of them fulltilt or pokerstars. My choice if i were you was mansion poker or full tilt. But the quality of players should be similar in the two rooms, but the software of full tilt is better!

I beleive the 20 percent rake at ipoker at low sng kills the action. The guy playing gazillion sng at stars say its much likely to play the standard in sng. Anyway its hard to make a nice net on sng cuz when u climbing the lattters there will always be a facit to what to do and the guys up there isnt easy to beat. They play a poker all day all night with a lot of help from tools.
). I wanna ask about what's the best
