You should take a look at some simulation graphs posted over in the MTT forum. There is very significant long-term variance swings even for high-volume online play. I was amazed when I saw those graphs. Unfortunately, can't find link right now.

Pretty sure OP meant poker pros, not lottery players.

The graphs weren't for MTT players specifically. The graphs were for indepedent trials with a specified edge, bet size, and bankroll. Nothing to do with the specific game being played. Could be chess, backgammon, blackjack, whatever.

I really wish I could find the link to those graphs. Eye opening stuff.

If you think that the variance is the same for MTT's as it is for cash-games then you are wrong.
