According to Jungleman, the reason for the huge swings and variance in the Big Game is Six Plus Holdem.

Six-Plus Hold’em is an action-packed variation of Texas Hold’em with the difference that a smaller 36-card deck instead of the full 52-card deck is used:

“It’s pretty new, I guess a lot of VIPs like to play it or something. t’s for sure more gambly. In terms of action, it’s way more action”, said Daniel Cates about Six Plus Hold’em.

And the best thing is you can play Six-Plus Holdem online at the iPoker network. We recommend you to try and learn it now as this game can be very profitable.
