With a bankroll like that I would play only <=$1 tournaments and on PokerStars with those big fields it’s even better to play 55c tournaments or less to catch u the swings.
I’m not too familiar with the MTT’s on other sites, but I expect on 888Poker and Partypoker the softest players pool for MTT players.

Cheers,

Do not recommend playing on Stars in general now. The structures are now very retarded. Consider playing on ipoker, it has very good value MTTs even for micros, payouts are much better in general. Microgaming is fairly soft. 888 and Party are not bad choices, but in general they generate bigger fields compared to ipoker and microgaming. Try to play MTTs that have the fewest entries to increase the chance of shipping it.

It also depends whether you can replenish your bankroll if you go bust. So if you can, then you don't necessarily have to follow strict BRM at this stage, i.e. playing $5 MTTs with few entries will be okay, just don't mass multitable them. Then once the roll grows you can make the BRM stricter because it is harder to replenish a BR of $6000 compared to $130.

I recomend you start playing 180p SNG, as they have the softest field and due to its sizing variance is quite low. Another advantage is that you start getting along with mtt strategy. Regards to BRM I wouldn't play higher than $2.

Penny tournament would be the best for you. Even your playing for a few pennies to win, it would be a good way to learn. If you have bigger bankroll you can upgrade to bigger tournament.

Definitely need some more info (personal ability, targets, refill, long run attitude), but in general: IPoker, 888poker, Micgrogaming. Extremely recommend $1K+ on PS;
