Hi,
So, after going broke for a couple of times, depositing and going for the big MTT's, now I deposited $50 and started grinding on Pokerstars STT $.50 FR Turbo.
Now I just want to know if it can be profitable, and if anyone ever did grind these stakes.

Thanks!

never played but 13.6% rake should be beatable by far margin on nano stakes imo

Played a few of them to get a feeling for SNG when i switched from CG... They are beatable but there are alot of donks who push with marginal hands early

I would just play the 1.50s or whatever is next up and risk going bust.

There is no reason at all to "grind" stakes this low. Play them because you're learning but ****sake, you're not going to grind them man.

Seriously, just go with your 30BIs. Redeposit if you go busto. For this sort of money, it's not worth worrying about having a sufficient bankroll.

take it easy, some people value money differently than you do.

Believe me, I value money but you can't learn at the nanostakes. Just solid play will beat the 1.5s so he should be fine with 30BIs.

What emit means is, 50$ might be a ton for OP (as in he cant just quickly reload) and being able to cash out 20-30$ at the end of the month might be really helpfull, thus grinding them could be reasonable.

Not that I dont agree with you.

I think I could definitely reload again, I just don't want to go busto over and over... Trying to play a solid game here, but maybe going for the $1,50 isn't a bad idea at all.

Ronny, I think I wouldn't recommend anyone, even a younger player, who can't reload $50 to gamble. If you can make $30 a month at the 0.50s I think you will do okay at the 1.50s
