For starters, here is an artificial example (apart from the trivial one, where you have 0% or 100% equity) where running it twice does not change variance:
You have: A
A
Opponent has: 5
4
Board: T
9
8
Dealer has been extremely clumsy and all other cards are dead except: 9
9
8
8
If you get a full house in the first run, then you will get a full house in the secon run (and vice versa), so running it once or twice doesn't make any difference.
Could a similar situation be made where running it once is actually a less variance game than running it several times? If not, how do you prove it mathematically?
I think that the latter is actually the case, but I don't know how to prove it.
