I have no problem with that explanation in general. The half-percent-at-least edge goal is sometimes elusive if you want to play $50 a hand or more. The "keep play variance moderate" part is a bit tougher when you're talking Ultimate X. That was the whole point of the article. Put in other words, if you can afford to play dollar Ten Play, then playing the Ultimate X version of the same game should be limited to quarter Five Play or less. IF you can find a good pay schedule at that level (good luck!)
Whether I'm going to receive the dealt straight or better followed by a dealt biggie hand or not is not part of what I worry about --- or what I dream about. It's nice to hit a big jackpot --- but the sizes possible on this game are hardly life changing.
