What games have more variance?

It isn't that I really care about varaince but variance tilts me pretty hardcore so I want to limit it.

Also, what SNGs should a 100NL player be playing comparetively? $15ers?

If you don't care about variance and doesn't have a small bankroll that is in urge to be built up, you should get your tilt out totally and play whatever you think is funniest! (or more profitable if you just don't care about anything but the money. Nothing wrong with that though [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img])

WTF?!? at previous post. No clue what that post even means. SNG's are supposed to have less variance. However, you're going to have a lot more losing games as your ITM is normally much lower than your % of winning sessions in NL ring games.

Tradionally NL SnGs were considered to have some of the lowest varience in all poker. I don't know if that is still case as SnGs have been considerably less profitable than they were say a year ago.
