Best online poker room for a low bankroll?

ditpoker

where does everyone recommend to play online? I have played alot on PPP and i like the way there is $2, $3 and $5 tournaments, and cash games with 1c/2c blinds. This is handy for a me with my limited bankroll. pokerstars.com and fulltilt dont really cater too much for such a low bankroll.

any suggestions?

Pretty much tribeca is the only one that caters to a small bankroll. All the rest require deposits in the $50 region, and their stakes generally start at .25/.50.

Just did a scout around for you and found the following:

Tribeca they have STT's from $0.10 and cash from .01/.02 (VC, PPP, etc.)

Prima, have STT's from $0.75 and up. and cash games of .05/.10 and up. (All-In Poker)

UB have STT's from $1 and up and Cash from .01/.02

Ladbrokes have STT's from $2 and up and cash from .10/.20

Stars and Party a bit more expensive. Full Tilt and Bodog have STT's from $4 with cash games of .05/.10 up

So I'd say Prima, stick with Tribeca, however my number one recommendation would have to go to UB.....

EDIT: Didn't see Amaru's post above - busy scouting , wasn't just trying to contradict.

No its cool. I only play on the really big sites anyway, so i'd expect people to have more in depth knowledge than me.

Sportingbet have cash games from .05/.10 and STT's from $3 and MTT's from $1.

I like the site too, the first one I played on (cause I had money in a normal betting account and started to play the poker too), and even I make money on this site, and I generally don't play online.

Try UB, it's a great site, the only problem is getting their bonuses, very difficult. But since, All-In, PPP, VC don't even have Sign-Up bonuses it's not that bad a gripe really.

Even With a small bank roll, id recommend puttin 50€ into PPP and play in their 5$ 6 seaters. The six seaters are my favourite STT format, as the payout for first and second isnt that much more for the 9/10seat. Also if you play at the low levels mentioned above, it is very hard to play "proper poker". You will find yourself gettin called by peoples fave hands etc, as apposed to the right reasons. Good comparison would be the early stages of a college tournie, were its madness standard wise (few good, few bad, and few terrible players) compared to the last 3 tables or so. atleast uve a better idea of how to play against them.
If you are playin to pass time then stay at the low stakes, but if you are hopin to improve then id recommend u play higher stakes until you have that level mastered then move up to 10$ games etc etc
(im aware that most on boards wudnt consider this to be "high stakes", but it certainly is compared to 1$ games)

Good luck

Stars have really got their act together for small brs, cash games from 1c2c and they now have a big range of $1 sngs including 45player ones and NLomaha hi/lo
