    I have been doing a little bit of a trial and error with micro SNG's, but i have some concerns with the rake. It seems like a lot of the micro level games online are tough to beat with the rake, whether it is really true or not. Can anyone who has put in some decent volume at micro SNG's give me some numbers from their time grinding these levels? I have been 20-25 tabling so volume isn't a concern.

    Thanks

    micro grinding sngs are tough because the rake just drains ur br. u have to play pretty close to perfect to beat out variance and the rake. something that may be of interest and more propular is grinding 18 n 45 man sngs instead of just 9 man

    In my last few sets i began to add more and more 18man turbos. I felt like they helped get me over the hump a little bit i guess. As for the 45 mans, i dont really have too much of a desire to play them as much. I still add a few but def. not going to put any volume in on those. At what level would you say the rake isnt as big of a factor?

    i was always told anything that is over 10% of the bi is horrible.
    5$sngs with 1$ rake, and even 75 cent rake will chew at ur br.
