I quit poker in 2016, got a job, got a better one etc. and now I want to go back to poker as a rec player. I thought that the easiest format to have fun while beating it would be MTTs (Spins are ban here as well here anyway), and I assumed that CGs are full of very strong players by now who tend towards GTO way more than in MTTs.

Aren't SNGs full of strong regs with good knowledge of ICM and PKO strategy?

I see that there are 5.5 and 11$ PKO MTT SNGs on Stars and see how these fill up in the evenings, while writing this post the 5.5$ one stayed at 5/90 players, not promising, but it's morning in Europe so that could explain it. I cannot play the "Bounty Builders on Demand" because these have a guarantee as well. The 3.3$ one starts at 90 players but is 1.5k Gtd, meaning I can reg it when 750$/2.94$ = 256 players have regged it, disgusting

Even if these MTTs SNGs run regularly I don't know if it would be worth it to learn proper PKO strategy just for 2 MTTs SNGs :( I'll pay more attention to how late I can register in the regular PKO MTTs, if it's a few minutes it should not be a problem, if it's 15+ it's probably not good.

Looks like I'll be a rec that late regs FO MTTs, just like you :P

I'd say the regs are a bit better at PKOs than MTT regs because as you suggested they will have studied the spots much more. I still think in general PKOs of all levels are soft atm
