If you like grinding and petience, limit is the game for you. But be prepared for up and down swings.

Re: what game should i be playing
 

In response to whether you should switch to stud or not, depends on the player's ability to adapt to diff. formats of games. Also, in the medium stakes games stud is sometimes SPREAD limit instead fixed-limit, and raises more concerns about adaptability. If you don't bluff often and like to see your strong hands win decent money, I would suggest fixed-limit hold'em. No-limit is a game of traps and if you have the second best hand when your foe has the nuts you can lose your whole stack in one hand. Actually, variance is not as big an issue in Limit (although it is somewhat of an issue, especially if you have loose opponents). Variance is, to put it briefly, your bankroll ups and downs. Since you can only bet/raise and/or call small bets you can sit in a game longer a get a better feel for your opposition.

nothing is further from the truth.

I have just switched from PLO and NL hold em because of the huge swings. So far the swings in limit are not too bad even if someone is loose and gets lucky. If you are patient limit can pay dividends.
