In a 9 man sng, you have 4 posibilities. You can finish down one buy-in, up .65 buy-ins, up 1.475 buy-ins or up 3.125 buy-ins. If your long term result is to be +.1 buy-ins per game (a 10% roi) it should be clear why any given set of games has a very low chance of converging to the long term results, this is why there is so much more variance in SNGs.

No this is why there is LESS variance in SNGs. Your actual results never stray too far from your expectation.

Is it possible that table selection makes more money on avg in cash than sngs? Finding juicy tables and staying til they go bad, picking up on the moods/tendencies of the players at each table, using very detailed datamined stats. These are all skills you can use in cash and I think they curb some of the swings.

Table selection affects your winrate. In SNGs this doesn't change your winrate as much because your winnings are still capped.
