Play 2 ring game tables at the same time, you'll be playing more hands so
you won't get bored of folding and start being impatient. If you can
handle it try 3.
Also, 5$ SitNGo Partys have a 1$ rake, that's way too high. Go to 10$
tournaments, the competition is no tougher. I would stick to Poker Stars
for NL Tourney's anyway, the format is much better, more skill is
involved. Also, 5$ tourneys there only have .50 cent rake.
Good luck.
