Tribeca Tournaments

    I know this has been asked before but what do people think are the best online regular MTT's. I play mostly on PPP adn have enjoyed it alot up to recently.
    Lately the 27$-15K-10:45pm and for a good while the 18$-15K-8pm have become like total crapshoots with hardly any poker being played up until the last 3 tables. I guess this is only to be expected with increasing popularity of PPP and tribeca in general.
    The 100$-10K-11:30pm is good tourney and enjoyable to play but on very late for my liking.

    What other sites are good for tourneys with under 250 odd players. i have seen the list of tournametns on this link http://www.bonuswhores.com/poker-tournaments.php but I was hoping for some viewpoints from the regular MTT players on here as to tourneys they like and why.

    Thinking of playing more regularly on Pokerstars. Which regular tourneys on there are worth playing?

    pokerstars generally have big numbers, my fav are the full tilt tourneys. IMO tribeca tourneys are the worst.

    Were we not suppose to get a "what tournys do you play" sticky or something like that I think it's a great idea

    Prima (all-in, gamingclub etc) has nice tournaments - good structure and smaller fields than PS or Party. Ladbrokes are probably still similar too. Pokerstars also have a great structure but the fields tend to be huge. Their 20$ 180 man games are great but tend to have a lot of serious players in them. As has been said Full Tilt is also very good with a very slow structure and smallish fields.

    Personally I think the tournaments on Tribeca are crap as the levels rise too quickly (the blinds, not the length of the level) but occasionally the 15min level games can be ok as the players are a different breed to the other sites.

    The tribeca tourneys are unrivalled in winnability, and ultimately profitability, they may not be the best for true poker, long levels etc, but the sheer muppetry more than makes up for this in regards to bankroll, even at higher level buy ins (eg the $200 freezeout, which i won yet again last night :D)

    If you are looking for tournys with under 250 entrys try Ladbrokes. They have a good selection of tournaments at all levels. They don't let Americans sign up, so the tournys never have very large entrys. Obviously the prize money is not as big with smaller fields but it's much easier to get a result. They also have a tournament leaderboard freeroll every week with good prize money. I'm surprised so many players here play on ppp. I tried it and found the software was like something from the stoneage.

    I usually play on PPP but have tried a few others in the past e.g. Paradise Poker. The main reason i use PPP over something like Paradise is the speed of play. Each round of betting on Paradise seems to take twice as long which can be very frustrating

    I play PPP a lot, find it a profitable site, only play tournies. William Hill isnt bad, no buy ins in majority of tournies. Dont like pokerstars, most tournies are all-in bonanzas up to add-on period ( also lost loads on this site! ).
