I am currently on Chromestar level and should break Silver this month and just broke 1k FPPs for this year. My BR is ~$100 and I normally play $0.10/$0.20 fixed limit, but I cannot beat the rake which is according to my tracker 5bb/100. I am wondering whether it's worth it to buy the $10 bonus or wait to get 2250 FPPs or more and buy the bigger bonuses?

Current FPP costs of bonuses:
1000 - $10 (bronze)
2250 - $25 (silver)
6250 - $75 (gold)
15400 - $200 (plat)
40,000 - $600 (super)
100,000 - $1600 (super)

If I recall each FPP is worth $0.016. So for me to accrue 1k fpps I would have to have paid $16 in rake? I think that might be wrong.

I am also supplementing with the Stellar Rewards.

What's the best thing to do for someone like me playing the micros?

I know you can get the gift vouchers from the VIP shop which can be good value?

I recommend anything BUT the money bonuses for you in the VIP shop

You're probably best off playing the VIP Limit 50fpp buyin with a fixed guarantee.

Play the 6max Sunday storm fpp hypers there soft and top 2 get $11 tournament money. I once heard of a mid stakes plo guy losing all his roll at high stakes and making back 20k from mass multitabling these for a month lol

Does someone ever try to buy 11$ MTT tickets and unregging them later? do you get a ticket back or T$?

I've been thinking about buying tickets and then switch them to T$ to play hyper sngs instead of MTT, as I'm a cg/HT player and so the FPP isn't really great for me. changing 1300FPP/10€ isn't really a great deal so if this trick would work it would be great for my rakeback

thanks in advance!

From the Pokerstars website:

"Note: tickets are non-transferable, non-exchangeable and non-refundable. This ticket must be used by the buyer to play in the designated event. If you register and then unregister from a target tournament, your ticket will be returned; you will not receive Tournament Dollars (T$)."
