"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?

.5/1 NL has the same blinds as 1/2 limit so they are the same stakes. What ever game requires more of a bankroll has more variance. I find you rude and if you clearly think I am wrong, show me.

THEY ARE NOT THE SAME STAKES! (first time I have used caps in a year [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) You are saying that 3 apples are the same as 3 oranges. What about stud which does not have blinds? Is that comparable to 0/0 HE?
