I am not the only one that says this but wanted to see what you all think is the best spot for Micro MTT's on US friendly sites. I really miss playing on Pokerstars as a US resident for there was always a micro MTT game that goes on. I was playing them all the time and this was before I found TPE. 

I have been playing on BCP/WPN and i have been quite disappointed in the game selections in the MTT department. I also remember back with old Merge that there seemed to be a plethora but unfortunately, based on where I live in the states, I can't play on Merge anymore so i am unfamiliar with their tournament schedule. 

Sometimes I think it sucks to be an America (land of the free, yeah right 🙁 ) so anyways. Would like to see what the TPE community thinks? smile

bovada has top notch mtts, but very few truly micro games. if youre rolled for it, they have a ton in the 5-20 range.

that's all i can think of…i hope you can even play there where you're from haha.

If it makes you feel any better, the Merge microstakes selection sucks warthog balls.

I want to use this particular thread to journal my work as I look at the different sites for me to determine the best route for a micro grinder as I am going down this path. The things that is difficult for a US player is room selection. What makes it more difficult is that as a US Player living in a state that poker rooms have opted out their offerings in my state makes it more of a challenge to gain a ROI as quick. This is very frustrating and messes with my mind a bit. 

I am a creative kind of guy. I will share where I live and what I am opt out on first.

OPT OUT SPOTS TO PLAY

of course Pokerstars/Fulltilt Poker/Party/888 for ROW players 

Merge gaming (including Carbon, PokerHost, sportsbook, RPM)

Intertops/Juicy Stakes

OPTIN spots where I can play

WPN (Black Chip Poker, Americas Card Room, True Poker)

Bovada

Seals With Clubs

Other bitcoin poker sites.

In my assessment, I need to find the high value poker tournaments, not necessarily the most poker tournaments (including sitngos). In observing and playing, it seems that Bovada is a nice option for grinding out SnG and also the tourneys for a 300.00 bankroll over WPN. Seals With clubs is a second alternative if you like turbo sitngos and can get more volume BUT the payouts arent' that great so to make decent money on Seals, you need to go through the regs AND you need to have a ton of volume to get through. 

I hope this helps you as I am researching the heck out of these sites for me as I restart and refresh my grind.
