A 10-20 limit player who wins at a rate of $40 per 100 hands (or an equivelent hourly rate if you prefer to measure in this manner) will see smaller and fewer swings than will someone who wins the same amount at 5-10 blind NL.

Bad comparison.

Many players maintain a win rate of 10 PTBB/100 through about NL $200. That's $40/100 hands. The standard deviation associated with NL depends a lot on playing style, but $200/100 hands is reasonable.

The player winning the same $40/100 in the $10-$20 limit game should have a SD of about $300/100 hands.
