PCA thoughts -- would appreciate some input

[SFBAY23]

I'm pondering a few random things with the PCA sats. I would appreciate any input that you think is relevant...

I've played 3 of the $27 rebuy sats and cashed the 650 in 2 of them. They feel pretty good and given the fact they are my first experience with rebuy events, so far so good. Lots of idiots during the rebuy period, and the endgame has been fine.

I took a shot at one $175 DSO. My draw was horrible on the first table with 7 huge players and I got knocked out in 4th.

I'm wondering how the $650 direct MTT has been for those of you that have played it. How does it compare in difficulty to the $20/180? Much harder, about the same, a bit softer?

As many people have discussed, the variance on the DSOs is pretty high, so if I want to take a real stab there I should win 1 or 2 more 650s. I could do the same and then take a few shots at the 650 direct... oh the big decisions. It's November 3rd, and I'd really like to have this out of the way by the end of the month.

Hope everyone is doing well.
