fulltilt requires you to be 21 if I'm not mistaken though? (I'm 18, I live in Canada though so i can still play legally on other sites)

if you HAD to take one of them for 5-10 tourneys, take pokerroom (or fcp, hint hint). they're both bad, but pokerroom is slightly more tolerable and not ridiculous 2837462783426782 player fields to crapshoot your way through.

lol, yeah, I gotta look at fcp, I'm actually a chartered member (if that actually matters after the first week), I have a couple of bonusus to clear up first on party and pokerroom and want to play at least a couple of MTT's to keep things interesting while clearing them

Bodog structure is good and there's usually overlay in the guarantees. The fields are generally pretty small and the bonus is good if you have a lot to deposit. Stars is decent because there are always a ton of tournies running, but the structure gets fast in the middle and the fields are enourmous. Also, there's never any overlay.gl,erac

FullContactPoker.com is good for MTT's. They are tolerable unlike Party with their massive fields.

Other sites have other restrictions.For example, the WPT online poker site does not allow Americans to play.
