Did Mason just post exactly the opposite?

I have to admit to being confused on this point.

There is MUCH more varience in limit holdem than PL/NL.

The fact that so many people don't understand this is simply astounding.

It used to be agreed upon those who had a qualified opinion that limit games had higher variance. However, many no limit players now claim the no limit games have gotten "wilder" (bigger bet sizes etc.) and thus the variance in no limit has become higher. It may be true, I don't know, haven't played no limit lately.

But to repeat, not to you:

VARIANCE IS NOT A FUNCTION OF SWINGS/BLIND SIZES. IT REFERS TO THE SWINGS IN WIN RATE.

EDIT: Sorry for the caps, but this is really a pet peeve of mine [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img].
