I've been playing the $3.50+30c super turbo sitngos on fulltilt poker almost exclusively for a while now. The variance is quite big, I can see swings of 10-20 dollars, my bankroll has fluctuated from $270 to $260 and now its at $288. There are also a number of times in which I have experienced rough Aces vs Kings preflop, or Aces vs Kings vs AK, or AK, AK vs AA. It is rather ridiculous. I find that if i stick to the strategy I set out and ocassionally steal with playable hands in position against players who I have significant fold equity I tend to do quite well. There is a certain amount of patience to these games, and you really have to learn how comfortable you are playing marginal hands or what the absolute latest you can wait to shove is.

It depends alot on the table that you're on. If its a tight tables, stealing with decent hands is pretty profitable when you have few to act behind you and they have a stack which you can affect in a huge way. I would rarely take on shorter stacks because they know that eventually they will have to shove, and you'll have to showdown. So its better to play relevatively good hands against them.
