After reviewing this thread, its hard to ignore how important both increasing your winrate and decreasing your standard deviation are to anyone who relies on poker for a "steady" income

There are no reliable thigns you can do to lower your std without your game deteriorating.
I believe that idea is nonsense. Just concentrate on playing well.

I agree with this, 2+2ers in general are far too worried about decreasing variance. The exception is changing the game you play, e.g. playing NL instead of PLO, playing SNGs instead of MTTs, playing a capped game instead of a bigger uncapped game with smaller blinds.
