Default Which SNG do you like best?

As in number of tables? I am currently playing and doing fairly well in 3-table games a Poker Stars. I think they offer the best value since the 2-table games pay out to fourth place but are taking the money straight from the first place payout.

Take the 10+1 for example, in a single table you get $45 if you win, but in a 2-table game you get $72 and fourth place gets $18.

Second place is $27 in a single and $54 in a 2-table game (exactly twice as much).

Instead of getting twice as much for winning you are paying the 4th place person if you win, shouldn't they take a bit from each of the top 3 to pay the 4th guy?

Now in a 3-table game you get paid down to 5 and they do have a better payout structure with first getting $100

Jump up to a 5-table game and first is $136, only $36 more for battling two more tables, no thanks.

I think the 3-table games are a decent way to go.

Anyone here who is better with math and +/- EV tellme which is the best one for the money?
