Default How tough are limit games?

I am getting back to poker after almost one year.I really feel like am lost.Wondering where to start? which limit and which site?
I checked fulltilt and pokerstars and games are really tough.
Most of them are shorthanded .I am looking for both shorthand and ring games. But there are few ring games offered now a days.

Anybody please advise me which site is best for lowlimit games upto 5/10 for both shorthand and full ring.I really want to achieve 1bb/100 without rake back. I did it before 2+ bb (though only 25k hands).
But now games are tough and i need honest opnion from you guys which limits + sites we can beat for 1bb multitabling .
I would really appreciate your help in suggesting something good.

Thanks

If you can play, 1+ bb/100 multitabling stars 6-max up to 2/4 is not a stretch at all. For some reason, the 3/6 often plays tougher than the 5/10 in my estimation...

the wesbite is good.But am surprised to see partypoker has so many real money players.Pokerstars has no rakeback.So i think i should play at fultilt.Not comfartable though.

Yes.

Also, if you play a lot, PS's VPP points are pretty equivalent to FT rakeback.

I suggest WPX. You will find a good mix of shorthanded and full ring play from 1/2 to 5/10 and 100% rakeback is nice. The only catch is the games are very aggressive and can be difficult at times.

If you want to play $5/10 I would suggest not playing at Full Tilt. Rake there is horrible, although of course there is rakeback, but worse is that (up until a month ago at least) the games suck like a black hole.

FWIW, my number suggest Stars rake 2.3BB/100 and FT rake 2.7BB/100 at $5/10. So who needs rakeback?

Guy.

How tough the limit games are depends on how often you have to play. If you have to play all the time, then the games will be somewhat tough compared to the glory days. If you only play when the conditions are right, then the games will be easy.
