when you're used to playing multi-thousand dollar pots in NL, you don't want to go and play multi-hundred dollar pots in fixed limit. So you move from 10/20 NL to 100/200 FL

[/ QUOTE ]

One thing to remember though is that playing 10/20 NL, you are going to play a $1000 pot maybe a few times in an hour, so maybe 3 times in 100 hands? (I could be way off here). In a $100/200 limit game you will play a $1000 pot probably 90% of the hands. If you have big leaks in limit, they will be magnified by the fact that every pot risks this much money.

10/20 NL you play $1K pots all the time. Pretty much any pot that goes past the flop. But your point is fair, of course. I'm purely speaking from an action-junky perspective. I know there are better games in the casino for me to play from an EV perspective than 1/2 FL.

The general factor is 8, not 5. 10/20 NL would be like 80/160 limit. So it is close, but the 100/200 fixed is the bigger game.

I use 6 for uncapped and 4 for capped. Based on PT stdev with considerations for fatter tails in NL session distributions over the short-term. Is that closer?
