The variance aspect is very de-motivational to putting in high volume. I remember being upset about the variance i had at times at 10nl. Then I looked at posts of results from 100nl+ players. These were guys posting hand analysis in the forums and I could see the way they thought about poker was many levels higher than me, and they were often just eeking out a winrate and they were putting in huge volumes of hands.

I think I liked the idea of being able to say that I played 100nl or even 50nl because it sounded impressive and sexy, but I always knew I would have insane trouble putting in the hours required to beat it.
