I have read much about how difficult it is to beat the rake in low stakes online. I was going to do a bankroll challenge. Any info about which game would be the best to go with on Americas Cardroom
SNG?
Cash?
PLO?
Tourneys?

Thanks for the info.

Stay away from the beast tables, whatever you do.

Def not playing the beast tables. No action on 10nl unless it is jackpot.

10nl is actually fine at jackpot tables. They discontinued the BBJ drop, and they aren't eligible for our subject to the beast. So you have some miniscule chance of getting a bad beat hand without paying any additional rake.

It depends on what you like to play. SNGS are pretty much non existant and the beast is a rake killer. You'll just have to spend the time figuring that out on your own like most of us did.

The re entry has kinda killed off the player pool quite a bit as well for the MTTs. Its kind of a **** show atm but I have some faith in the new tourney director, he seems to be interested in making both the company and players happy.

Now that merge has picked up their cash out speeds, I'd just go there and avoid WPN totally.

They have super high rake though for cash games and gutted their vip program so you max out at 15% rakeback which by their history might not even be available next month. Their cash out times although good right now could go back to the old 8+ weeks anytime. I really can't see the value in playing there. I can't see the value in playing at ACR unless you're going to burn your eye holes making top 10 in the best to counter the rake.

And with Bovada you max out at like $120 in cash bonus kickbacks a month and their rake is high aswell. Only nice thing there is loser action.

It really sux right now for US players.

From what I have seen there is little to no SNG traffic majority of the time on WPN (I play on BCP only)

The only worthwhile low & micro tournaments are scattered out across the day.

What is your starting bankroll for this challenge and maybe I can give you a better answer

Hi, if you play like to play tourneys, you might like to check the thread about the HIGH FIVE SERIES!! From the 20th Nov to the 24th Nov

All valid points.

Another option is to just play more live. That's what I've been doing lately. It's technically higher rake (because of dealer tip etc.) but the games are WAY softer, you get instant no fee cash outs, and there's no ******ed beast.
