Are you restricted to US-only sites?

Depends on what stakes you are looking into playing.

1 month ago my BR was at 173. I started playing the $3 45man turbos on Stars and 1 month later my BR is $400.

Hopefully I can move up and compound those profits.

Smaller freeze-outs on Party and OnGame are fiiiine for BR building as well. Those are the only small stakes buy-in experiences I have on Euro-only sites, frankly I think you'll find the level of competition pretty horrible no matter where you play. registrar can possibly say something about the Crypto network? There is the incentive of bigger antes there, which is a good thing if you're a good, aggressive player.

If you play higher than $10-20 freezes, the rebuys on both party and ongame are fantastic. The $20r at 19:00 GMT on OnGame in particular - if you double rebuy and add-on and don't win a single pot, you're still at the average...lol. Kinda sucks with regards to the prize pool, but makes it very easy to dominate the field.

ok.. ill take a look into the ongame network.. it has been a long time since I have played on party.. so maybe I could also look into this.

btw my br is about 3K ( I try not to keep much more online) allthough I think i will slowly rebuild it again so I can play bigger games again.

thanks for the input , more is welcom

If you want to play on OnGame, here is some more advice:
* Everyone limps tons, and rarely fold to anything but huuuge raises. Raise BIG with big hands early in a limped pot, you'll usually get one or two callers. Don't assume they have a hand even if they call.
* There are _no_ antes, so you have more time. Restealing is totally unheard of, so don't call too wide barring reads. Restealing works very well vs aggro guys though.
* Playing aggressively works wonders when you get deep, especially postflop. A lot of loose-passive and weak-passive players. Usually a fine mix of loose and passive donks later on. Also quite a few aggro maniacs of the bad sort.

Try the Full Tilt 45 man $20 +2 SNGs. Pays top 6. I'e found them to be pretty soft. Good Luck.

I agree with this. The $10/45s are good too. Obviously less payout but still soft.

The Pokerstars $11/45 turbos are also very soft. If you know how to pushbot at all they pay extremely well.

The $10/180s are also great.
