What do you think about the difference between 16's and 27's. I've been playing mostly 16's but throwing in a few 27's and haven't really noticed much difference, but my sample size is very small. You seem like you have played a few.

I was frustrated at the $16s for awhile, mostly breaking even, before I took a shot at the $27s and started winning. Variance? Maybe. I suck? Probably. But I'm not the only one I know who thinks the $16s are unusually hard.

The $6.50s are a complete joke.

There is going to be typically a little more variance in a turbo type structure, so unless you have large samples at both (16s and 27s), then it is difficult to say "how much" more difficult the 27s are.

An educated guess on my part would say that, for the money, the 27s are a better deal because they are not THAT much more difficult than the 16s...but obviously are to some extent. Though I wouldnt even play the 27s without a roll of at least 900-1000...I have had a couple of downswings of 20+ buy-ins...And when A huge chunk of profit is constantly going to MTT buy-ins, things can get hairy from time to time.
