The Best Site For New Players and Free Rollers OK here is a great little site if you are a low buy in tournament player.It has lots of Micro guarantees ranging from $10 guaranteed for a .25 entry fee $25 guarantees for $1.25 entry fee $50 guarantees for $3.30 entry fee $100 guarantees for $5.50 entry fees and a $200 deep stack guarantee with 2500 chips to start and 10 min. blinds for a $11 entry fee. All freeze outs most with starting chips of 1000 and blind levels of 6mins.Most have overlays as the average number of entries are 15 to 18 players making these play out very similar to a 2 table 18 man turbo SnG.However with the guarantees you get any where from 7 to 1 up to 13 to 1 back on your entry fee for a win.<p> They pay 3 spots 1st. 50% , 2nd., 30% 3rd.20%.If there's 28 entries they pay 5 spots but its very rare to have more than 20 entries.The reason for the low traffic is it's a flash download site and the software is a little touchy.So I never play the bigger tournaments there like the 1k guarantee w re-buys and add on. ,$33 entry fee for it.<p>You can get froze out and sometimes not get on your table at beginning and when you are switched tables during a tourny.I have played there so long that I know all the tricks to get through these problems.1st use mozilla fire fox instead of IE 5,6,7 or 8. also clear your temp files each day before starting play there, your cookies and clean registry this can be done through your tools then internet options or use a free program called glary utilites. download it at c net downloads.If your screen freezes just close the site and reopen from square 1.The big paybacks on these tournaments compared to the buy ins make all this worth the trouble to me.<p>It was the 1st site I made a consistent profit on every month even though I was a newbbie when I started playing there.There's free rolls every hour, making it a good bankroll building site.<p> I keep $500 there at all times and when I get my acct to $1k I move $500 to other sites I play now like Poker Stars and Cake.It pays for all my higher stakes games on these far more competitive sites(Believe me it;s a fish tank).The site has a bad reputation for supposedly not paying off.I have never had a cash out not honored.I have had some take longer than they should have ,but I've always gotten payed when I asked for a cash out.I use Picclub to cash out there now and it is usually done the same day as requested.<p>I think most of the complaints are from newbbies that roll up a decent bankroll there from free rolls then playing the low buy in tournys.They then try to cash out and find out you must make a real money deposit and clear 200 player comp points before a cash out can be had if you have built up a roll pre-deposit.<p>This is a common requirement for all poker sites.Nothing is free,you arn't going to build up say $1k on free rolls and low buy ins and cash without a deposit anywhere that I know of.A$25 instant bonus can be had every month with a $50 deposit.I believe you can get $10 free to try the site.Look at pitbullpokertracker.zoomshare This is a site that tracks the tournaments and ranks players there.<p> I think I saw a code for the $10 there.Maybe there's a link here I don't know I'm very new here.The site is called PitBull Poker.If I hadn't started at this site I'm sure I would of given up online poker because I was getting creamed at Stars ,Tilt and Cake when I 1st started yet I made money at PitBull.<p>I quit the big sites and played at Pit for about 18 months till I improved enough to compete at the big sites, so as I said the player pool is very soft there.G.L. hope you like the site if you have problems with the software issues I mentioned P.M. me if they have it here and I'll tell you how to get around the glitches if you can't figure it out on your own.I like to see new blood there since I feel like I helped keep the site afloat in it's early days.It seems to be on much better footing now after 3 plus years online that I know of.
