Those bounty tournaments don't fill up fast if at all at higher stakes so you'll slow your progress down a lot if you make it there. I'd also suggest upping the amount of buy-ins you need to play a certain SnG. SnG's have a lot of variance just because they are short and fast single table tournaments, due to this you'll see much worse swings then in a cash game. Take my advice or leave it, good luck in your bounty games.

    On a side note, that fifty cents game is a terrible investment unless you have a really good rakeback program. They charge 20% rakeback to play those games with a very little return. I'd go to bumblebee's at those stakes, pretty easy game to beat if you play solid poker and the rake won't kill you.
    After playing a bunch of fastfifty's, i have to agree with you mrlova. I had a pretty bad run, got knocked out of like 5 in a row with a high pp (QQ, KK , and AA). Fortunately, the BR didn't take a hit as i placed in a po fr, so that offset the losses. Right now i'm playing fruitfly's as my starting level, even though i only have 13 buyins, but as mrlova said, the 20% fee is a bit high and the superturbos only charge 6%, so a better value imo. Plus you can play a lot more per hour. So, hopefully my luck will turn and i can get the BR up to where i can start playing the bounties, which i like the most. Right , like i said, i'm right where i started (13), though down 6 from sitngos.

    Careful with that line of thought ... Your roll did take a hit, you just supplemented it with a freeroll. It's not a major issue when your playing a microroll ... it can be an issue when the roll gets bigger.
