Re: 5/10 SH variance.
Most professionals and people who study the game realize that stop losses are a bad idea (Malmuth's Poker Essays, Inside the Poker Mind) and stops should be set for when you are playing bad or at a bad table. Losing 30BB is not an indication of any of these things. It's absolutely ludicrous to think that you will end a session literally 8 minutes after it's started if you play 3-4 pots early and lose. A 30BB stop loss in SH limit has to be the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
