Std dev question - shortstacking vs. fullstacking.

Does anybody have any data whether shortstacking in general has a higher standard deviation than fullstacking? Meaning assuming you have a X winrate which stack size is more likely to yield higher swings in terms of big blinds.

Depends on Meta Strat because 99% of players will play short stack dif then big stack.. In general if proper overal strat is applied and hero is playing the short stack tighter than big stack then the short stack will have lower SD, but again this is heavily influenced by the way the two stacks are played.. If both stacks played the same with very nit/tag style than the big stack now has the lower SD..
