    If any... I know us micro, recreational players sometimes get f-ed by rake and what not. At the moment I only play on pokerstars, which is great, but there are some things which could be better. One of the problems is, on Stars the micro fields are nearly always 2000+ (I know some people probable think this is a good thing, but for someone who doesn't put in a whole lot of volume, I'd like to actually have a chance of making a FT once and a while). Also the tournament start times are inconvienent for me. Maybe I'm being too picky, we'll see...

    So, 0.25c - $2 buyin range, under 1000 player fields, rake no more than 10%, and starts times from 8pm-10pm GMT. Are there any sites out there that offer these kinds of tournaments? Or is Stars pretty much as good as it gets for micro stakes players.

    Full Tilt has some in the 2-3 dollar range and they usually get about 600 players about every couple hours. 10% rake. As a rule the higher the volume of the site the more people in the tourneys and the more frequency of those tourneys. FT is about 3-4 hours into the tourney. Cake Poker doesn't really have much under $5 and those are few and far between but I haven't played on there in a while.
