Default Sit and go fees still too high

just started a 10 player sit and go at party

it costs $5 + $1 fee

i know why theyre charging this much - put simply, because theyll get it. Hald the time you click on the table and by the time it loads its full.

still, im gonna make sure i play sit and gos elswhere in the future at sites with lower fees as in the long run your just throwing your cash away

PokerStars's fees seem very reasonable. I like it there.

yes sir even poker room .com dropeed theres it seems like there the only place with 5+1 every were else its +.50 or +.25


heres a lil math on how much your actually losing


if you think about it if you play 4 5+1 sit and goes in a day and you usually play every day about 4 thats 4 $ a day

28$ a week
112$ a month
1344$ a year

now you spend HaLf that on sit and goes at places like prima poker and absolute and pokerroom but hey theres 60000 ppl on partypoker they gotta be doing something right lol

Poker stars is funding for its events with the entry fee sky rocketing. Seems like bs to me. Players shouldnt fund by sit and goes for things they dont care about.

Very true personally all sngs are too high. I think they should lower them since they have a new one going every 30 seconds in some cases.

yea the fee is high but they do pay out a little higher then say pokerstars. however, i like the poker stars format better than the flash party poker setup.
