Take it from another guy that can't beat NL100: You aren't.

Do like me and retreat to donkaments where the money is easy.

[/ QUOTE ]I believe his claim of losing 1.8k in 1,000 hands at 100nl lends credence to your theory sir.

But I have no idea what this really is a graph of though. Maybe a breakeven player who liked to take shots, and the larger blinds tilted him each time?

Yup, I suck at the cash games, but at least I can control my losses and donkstrike the MTT's enough to stay afloat. I'll put my graph together, but I bet it looks a hell of a lot like yours.

Re: Is variance too powerful to overcome at 100nl ?
 

Yes, variance is way too powerful to overcome. Whatever you do don't try to improve. Keepin doin what you're doing.

Re: Is variance too powerful to overcome at 100nl ?
 

Its not too much to overcome but it does make you want to throw up at times.

Im stuck about another 5 buyins just this evening and most have it has gone to 80/5 retards just waking up with flush vs flush, top set vs middle set, QQ>AA etc etc and obviously getting zero action on your monsters. Not much you can do really.

Its depressing but its not always like that.

Re: Is variance too powerful to overcome at 100nl ?
 

You sure did get excited when you were up $400 huh?

Re: Is variance too powerful to overcome at 100nl ?
 

73k hands and never more than 7BI??

I do not believe this graph to be the results of variance.

Re: Is variance too powerful to overcome at 100nl ?
 

lol lol lol

if variance was so big at 100nl, theres no way there would be so many player that have destroyed it

Re: Is variance too powerful to overcome at 100nl ?
 

you prolly just suck at poker, like me
