Default Best Site for Sit N\' Go\'s

I started playing these on absolut poker but quickly learned my lesson that there were better sites out there other than a place where the blinds get to 1000-2000 in 55 mins. I switched to poker stars since their slower blind structure allows for more post flop play and the better skilled and disciplined players to be more successful (which i like to think that I'm one of). They have their disadvantages though, like they take a lot longer and the overall play is better. Is pokerstars as good site to play at or should I look to go elsewhere if i'm trying to make a profit.

OP said he wants slower games. bodog has very slow blinds early, but they accelerate quickly later.

Having slower games and more profit is akin to having your cake and eating it too!

If you like quicker games, try the Turbos on Stars as someone already has suggested. The blind levels are the same for Stars but they only last 5 min...

Wow, that is a gentle blind structure. So much for hourly rate, but I think I can do well there. Especially clearing $1 of bonus per $1 of rake I contribute.
