Default Turbo SNGs: skill level vs. increased luck factor

When playing turbos, is a good player's skill advantage still big enough to overcome the increase luck factor in order to be able to play more SNGs faster?

If someone played say 200 Turbos and 200 Regular SNGs, would the hourly rate in the turbos be substantially higher?

well Id say there isnt anymore luck involved than Partys sngs with 800 chip stacks. And the hourly rate for a turbo playr verse the regular sngs at that site would be higher. IDK how much higher but it would or should.

Turbos are definetley more profitable non turbos take twice as long and you cannot maintain and roi of two times more in the non turbos.

Meh I think its about the same if you are much better than the competition, and turbos are better if you are only slightly better than the competition (aka can bash the donks but are par or subpar vs the better players and just sit there waiting for hands).
