    Or am I getting raped by playing the $1.20 and $1.75 non-turbo MTT sng's.

    I play for entertainment purposes but would like to make some money while doing it.

    jnspn92 865 $0 $1 14% -$113 - pokerstars SNG Only

    Any suggestions appreciated. turbo's?, move up in stakes?

    why is that? I have done well at the $1.20's or are you talking rake wise?

    yes rake, its 20% but 10% for turbos, so you are giving up 10% roi when the turbos are just as soft and take less time.

    Stop playing games with more than 10% rake. Problem solved.

    I mostly play the 3.30 and 6.50 KOs on FTP

    Maybe try something similar on stars?
