Default Re: Turbos vs. regular SNGs (variance)

[ QUOTE ]
This is mainly a Pokerstars question.

Do the PS Turbos offer more or less variance compared to their normal SNGs?

In my experience (about 100 of each) I tend to find the turbos offer me less variance and more ROI (esp on the hourly rate multitabling)

What does everyone else have to say about this? I would love to know.

EDIT: this is mainly geared towards mid-lower stakes SNGs

Logically, the turbos should offer higher variance, higher hourly rate, and lower ROI.

I have played a lot of both, but at very different phases in my poker life so I cant really say for certain from experience.

I think the only one above up for debate is ROI...If youre better than the average player in the SNG pool, then standard SNGs should offer higher ROI (more play time is better for the "better" player). Of course this assumption could be offset by the fact that better players might gravitate towards the standard SNGs and lesser players to the turbos...But who knows?
