Default Re: multitabling higher limits

The variance in short handed is greater than full games, but I imagine the variance at 10/20 6-max is probably similar to 30/60 full in terms of bb/100.

However, in absolute terms, the variance at 15/30 and 30/60 is much bigger. At 30/60 you will experience 10k downswings, wheareas at 10/20 a bad downsing is 4k.

In terms of earning potential, a rather average player (e.g. me [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]) can make 2+ BB/100 at 10/20, whereas at 30/60, excellent players are reporting winrates as low as 1BB/100. Also factor in that decreased winrate = bigger fluctuations.

If you compare 1BB/100 at four full tables of 30/60 versus 2BB/100 at 10/20 (6-max), you can see that they are roughly equal. Obviously there are alot of ways of looking at this problem. However, there is a strong argument that 10/20 6-max games offer the best ROI of any online game.
