The tigher the game with less dead money in it. The worse the swings. I went 100BB on 2/4 party for the first time ever. I aknow its because that limit has become the Sahara desert compared to what it was 2 years ago..... [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

no, the opposite is true. this is what people mix up. a tight game will affect your winrate. a lower winrate will yield greater downswings. this is why the mediocre 0-.5 bb/100 winners have enormous downswings. a tight game corresponds with a lower SD, since there will be less big pots and you will be putting in a lot less bets postflop.

also, 100 BB in limit is nothing and it says nothing about the quality of the games.
