Is playing two 1/2$ any better or worse than one 2/4$. Assuming your skill does not drop a lot when multitasking. Is this better or worse as far as becoming a more consistent winning player. How does this affect good/bad streaks and standard deviation and all that crap. Basically are you any less likely to go broke

Assuming the competition is the same at both limits and, as you say, you are not affected by multitasking, your standard deviation per hour or per dollar bet will go down at two $1/$2 games than one $2/$4 game. With the same bankroll, you're less likely to go broke in a given amount of time, assuming you're a breakeven or winning player. If you're a losing player, you might have a better chance of surviving with higher standard deviation, because you need luck to avoid going broke.
