Default Re: Which Format is Best for Going Pro? (Online and B&M)

"Negative. A large swing in limit might be 300 bb. That is what 6 buy ins at NL. 6 buy ins is not considered a large swing in NL. "

I was just going to call you an idiot and move on, but Let's examine your logic:

A 300 BB swing in limit is 6 buy-in as NL, which is not a big deal.

In 1/2 Limit that is a $600 swing. In NL, a $600 swing that is 6 buy-ins would be a $100 buy-in game, meaning .5/1 Blinds (usually) .5/1 NL is a higher-stakes game than 1/2 Limit. Do you see why you're wrong?
