Default what is the best mirco limit site?

Hello!
iam haveing problem deside where to play, iam still in the learning process so iam looking for tables around 0.05/0.10 NL. I liked the look of UB but i had to be 21 years to play there and iam only 20. so maybe you guys have some advice where i could play? only have $300 for my poker wallet atm so play on any higher than 0.05/0.10 would be dumb rigth?

thanks for help

poker stars has .02/.04 and .05/.10 and I think paradise does too.

also with a bankroll of 300 you could technically play .5/1 if you are a winning player. if you need to prove youself first i'd suggest .1/.2 or .25/.5.

Perhaps you might just want to try out 10k hands at .05/.1 and then if you show profit move to .25/.5 or .5/1.

Paradise has a good range of micro limits, thats where I played for a bit.

With $300 you should be able to play $.50/$1 but if you dont have much experience I'd say it'd worth playing a few thousand hands at .10/.20 or .25/.50 first. Paradise has both of these limits.

Since you have $300 I really wouldn't bother with anything lower than .05/.1.

also, bonuses are his friend at this point. OP: you might want to look into some of those; however you usually need to play at least .5/1 to clear...

clearing boni at Paradise is painful below $.50/$1. You need 100 raked hands per $10 bonus money and at the .10/.20 I was playing I managed to get about 30 points in a couple of months! If you are playing low it may be best just to try to play good poker, then once you have the skills get on to Party and whore like everybody else.

moving up in limits: party network. the bonuses are easy to clear, but you need to deposit 500 to fully take advantage of them.

Getting hand histories from Paradise is a chore, so i wouldn't bother with poker tracker just yet. Play a few thousand hands of .10/.20 and see how things go, if you have done lots of reading you should be able to apply your knowledge and pretty much know you are doing stuff right. Once you are happy move over to Party and then buy Poker tracker.

Thats the way I did it anyway, I dont think there is much to gain by having PT before you get to .5/1 at Party.

I'm pretty sure most of the replies so far didn't realize that you are talking about playing NL. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] You are definately under-rolled to play .10/.25 but I don't think it horrible at all if you want to take a shot at it... just move down if you lose a few buyins.

well spotted [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

What is a good roll for .1/.25 NL then, since that's what I've been playing mostly recently and am way below $300. The games are crazy soft though, surely 12 buyins is more than enough?
