It's a good idea to some degree. The downside I have seen in some is the rake fee is too high. There is a 2cent one that runs regularly, but its .02 + .10 and that sounds pretty lame. Some sites have a min rake is my point. I wouldn't play in a .10 + .10 on principal alone. I can afford the 20 cents no problem... not playing any tourney where more than 15% goes to the house.
