I started out playing normal sngs and was doing alright, but then I noticed all the pros all seemed to be playing the turbos.  At first I just thought it was because they could play more games per session, but then I noticed the rake is significantly lower for the turbos.  For instance, on star the rake is 10% for the regular SnGs, but only 8% for the $6.50 turbo, 6% for the $16 turbo and again 8% for the $27 turbos (not sure why the $16 are lower).  After seeing this I started made a made a deposit to boost my BR then started playing the $16 turbos even though I was still slightly under rolled (I figured I could reload if necessary) and my ROI has been significantly higher.  I don't think people truly under stand how detrimental the rake is to ones long term win rate.  Although I don’t think one is any easier then the other just faster so you have to really pay attention to the blinds and chip stack.

As far as the all-in fest goes once your chip stack gets down to 10bb or less it is almost always best to push rather then just make a standard raise since a standard raise that would make you pot committed and if were to get re-raised you would have a tough decision to make, so the player who know what they are doing almost always push once down to 10bb or less unless they have a good reason not to.
