    I took down a $12 once but i doubt there is much difference in skill in buyins in these things, they're mostly about luck lol.

    do you mean which is toughest to win out of the $2.20, $12, and $36 180s? Definately the $2.20.

    Just in general I mean, most turbo's end up bingo's at the FT, which is the toughest to accumulate chips throughout.

    None...but if you want a better chance at winning get good at push/fold then the 36/180s will be cake. Altho you could look at it as if you know push fold really well u'd crush those who don't but ranges would be more predictable at 36s

    The 36/180s are the hardest obviously.

    The 2.20's would be the easiest.

    If you don't believe it try playing some.

    I've played the 36's and i don't see much difference from the 12s except perhaps people are a bit tighter earlier on. Later stages its still push kq get called by ace rag etc. Just a load of flips really.

    $36 harder than $12.

    Hopefully not too much though, im about 60% ROI I think over about 1,000 $12s and -25% or more for the $36s, although I think ive only played 100 of them.

    I have been absolutely ass****** in them though, I remember in one case getting AA cracked on the bubble by Derek8 for about 70,000 chips which would have most likely seen me pretty far. Im sure its just variance though since ive only played so few, I hope so anyway.

    Same with the 6.50 90 mans they fill up slow i think i get in like 10-12 in 8-10 hrs getting into 95% of them in that time span.

    Agree the 36 are tougher than the 2$ obv but multi table a bunch of 2.20$ and u will see they are just as hard to win because u get called with anything and sucked out on quite a bit and the frusteration level is high.....

    I have not played the 36$ ones yet so I can't say but would think it's alot tighter until it turns into bingo with about 30 left like most turbo's.

    $36s, then $12s, then $2s obv. Why would it be anything different. Anyone who tries to claim for whatever reason that a $2 is harder to win than a $36 is plain retarded.

    Wrong!!!
    $2.20 is the hardest to win ive won more @12 than $2.20. The play is horrific people allin preflop with suited or connected anything, A to 10 any, matter of fact anything at all really,
    Getting to the money is not to hard but trying to push a big stck around is a waste of time no one folds the $2.20 is a dead set coin flip from start to finish.

    You have to be kidding if you think the 2.20s are even remotely hard to win.
