New to HU - Some questions New to HU - Some questions

hey, i'm new to HU limit and have just read the FAQ and still have some questions:

1. what site is best for the most amount of games/fish? it seems that there are very few hu limit players on stars.
2. what site is the best for rake? i'm goldstar on stars and have no FTP rakeback, should i stay on stars or would it be worth to sign up w/ rakeback at carbon poker or something?
3. i know in NL HU if you have a big enough edge there is almost no way you can lose, hence this implies very little variance. what about hu limit?

sorry if any of these questions are stupid or i missed them in the FAQ

1. Stars and Tilt have the most games, I don't think many people are going to divulge their secrets of where to find fish.

2. No Idea

3. HU LHE has tons more variance than NL, you will probably break some mouses

I play 5/10 on Stars during peak US time and never have to wait too long for a bad player to sit.
Variance can be pretty brutal if you have a small edge but if you are highly skilled (table selecting too) you won't see many huge swings. My standard deviation is at 25BB/100 for huhu and 19BB/100 at 6 max. I've been running at 9BB/100 though for the last 4200 hands at huhu. So shipit!
Played a bit of HUNL and can't say that you are guaranteed of winning a session there either. Variance can be pretty bad at NL vs a maniac or Lag.
