Typical Session Swings in LHE???
Here's another newbie question from a NL transplant.
It seemed like in NL, I would have session swings in the 3-5 buyin range (either up or down). This was while 4 tabling. I was wondering if there is such a thing as *Normal Session Swings* in LHE, and if so, how big are they? Note: I'm not talking about those days where you run like GOD, or get run over, but just after an up or down session where you think, I made/lost "$X", but that's just a normal thing. Thanks! |

100BB is the outer boundary of normality for me.

I guess it depends on styles. I have seen people who I have as overall winners swing 60BB to the bad or good. I typically stay in the 30BB window. Generally it doesn't matter ... I keep my eye on my BB/100 more than I worry about some minor variance. |

+/- 100BB swings are completely standard I am afraid

Re: Typical Session Swings in LHE???
Thanks for the info guys. For some reason I thought LHE was going to be *WORSE* than NL in terms of swings. It looks like the opposite is true.
Here's an intersting post I pulled from another forum that talked about the difference in standard deviation as well... "I've found that my standard deviation (quantitative variance) in limit is between 1/3 and 1/5 what it is in no limit. For example, my std dev in nl is 40/50ptbb/100 hands and 10/18ptbb/100 hands in limit. My winrate also tends to fall in a similar range (5-10bb/100 nl and 1-3bb/100 limit). Given this data it is apparent that an equivilant limit game will have 3x to 5x larger blinds than it's no limit counterpart for myself. Thus a 2/4nl game has an equivilant variance and win rate to a 6/12 through 10/20 limit game. This data also holds true to standard bankroll reccomendations given for limit and no limit. NL players tend to recommend 20-40 buy ins for a given level. If you do the math that is 1000-2000ptbbs. Limit players give the recommended bankroll of 200-500ptbbs. Once again our math finds that a nl game with a big blind size of x tends to be equivilant to a limit game with a big blind size between 3x and 5x." |
