I think I found my two favorite SNG games, the $12 180 turbos on stars and the $33 HU turbo sngs on FT.

I like both games and prefer them to cash. I believe I'm a better 180 player as I'm newer to HU and still have a boatload of leaks. If you had 1.6k in your bankroll which do you believe would have a lower risk of ruin, be a better steady cash flow (IMPORTANT as I have to pay rent, buy groceries, etc.), and would be the easiest to beat overall?

Somewhat of a loaded and a "it depends" question.

How often do you tilt? I think that would make the difference for me since I'd prob tilt alot easier at HU then 180 mans.

Also wats your ROI at each one?

Unless you are going to move down pretty quick with the $12s... 1.6k isn't really enough of a bankroll for those.. there can be some monster swings and 1k downswings are not unheard of at all for the top players. Why not hop down to the 11s or 22s and work out your hu leaks?

Play HU, in my opinion it is the only true form of poker as it is meant to be played. And on top of that, you don't have to gazilion table to make a living but you can just play one table comfortably and get sick reads

It's a lot easier to put in volume with the 180 mans because you can multitable them once you are experienced and comfortable with them. I find it hard to put in volume with HU sngs because you have to pay so much attention.
