Default What site is best for tournament players?

I'm a tourney whore.......not winning as much as I want to, but getting by(damn variance!!!). I'm wondering which site is really best for the tournament player? Looking at the structure it seems as UB is the best in that category, as the blinds are pretty small for the first hour, but it kinda catches up to you at the 1 3/4th mark. Stars has a pretty good structure, and they have a nice amount of double-stack tourneys, which means more bang for your buck. Full Tilt is winnable, but 10 minute rounds are kind of rushed especially with 1500 chips. You also have to take into account how many people play these tournaments, which Stars wins by a landslide. What's your take on this? For a small stakes tournament guy, where should I primarily focus on? Thanks in advance.

The number of entrants in PokerStars tournaments makes it the best, at least to me.

I don't like stars tounreys at all. They are slow and tight. And the payout structure seems odd too. I mean on a 3$ MTT where 1000 people enter, the 300th place gets 3,32$ the 269th place gets already 3.98$ and so on. There are only a few normal MTT an hour. My favourite is Ongame. They have MTT-s running constantly, i like the structure and the players dont seem to like winning very much.

Bodog is pretty underrated for tournaments, IMO.

Their guaranteed tourneys almost always have overlays and there seem to be fewer pros there than on Stars or FT.

Their structure gives you a lot of play as well.

FTP has a slightly better structure, Stars has more players. After those 2 noone else is close.
